Careers with DFS Law

Deeley Fabbri Sellen was established in 1979, and the firm has grown intentionally and strategically since that time. We believe that our size allows the firm to achieve a balance, being large enough to have lawyers specializing in each major area of law, and still small enough to ensure that we are accessible and that each client, lawyer, and staff member is individually valued and able to contribute to the firm.
