About Dmitry
Dmitry Stadlin built his legal foundation in California. He earned a B.A. in political science from the University of California, Davis in 2007 and completed his J.D. at the University of California College of the Law, San Francisco in 2010. Those years shaped a methodical approach to law that shows in his courtroom work and written advocacy.
After law school he entered private practice and later joined Stadlin Marinho LLP. He became a partner at the firm in 2019. Colleagues describe him as precise in drafting and persistent in pursuing procedural and substantive remedies. He has handled matters that require close attention to appellate standards and federal procedure.
Stadlin is admitted to practice in California, and he is also admitted to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit and the U.S. Supreme Court. Those admissions signal an active engagement with both trial and appellate processes. He has participated in appeals and filings that invoke federal and state law questions, and he regularly prepares briefs and records for higher courts.
His career reflects steady advancement rather than sudden leaps. The move to partner was the latest step in a trajectory that combined courtroom appearances, written advocacy, and collaboration with other lawyers at his firm. He is known inside the office for attention to deadlines and for structuring arguments to meet the specific standards of appellate review.
Outside the courtroom he has worked on matters that require coordination across jurisdictions. Admission to the Ninth Circuit and the Supreme Court means he can carry cases beyond state lines when necessary, and he has managed the procedural complexities that come with multi-tiered appeals. That work calls for careful review of records, strategic briefing, and an eye for issues that will survive the strict scrutiny of higher courts.
Peers note that Stadlin’s training at UC Davis and UC College of the Law, San Francisco informs both his analytical style and his approach to case preparation. He balances the short, forceful point with longer, document-based argument when the situation demands it. He remains based at Stadlin Marinho LLP, where he has served as partner since 2019.
He currently concentrates his practice on appellate and federal litigation at Stadlin Marinho LLP.
