A Calling to Serve Justice
Dulio Chavez grew up in Delano, California, a small northern California town and farming community home to a large grape-growing area. It was here that another man named Chavez – Cesar Chavez – organized farm workers and led a nationwide boycott of California grapes in protest of working conditions, an action that has come to be known as the Delano grape strike. Delano was a community where you could quite literally see the disparity between the wealthy and the working class – the landowners and the migrant workers – depending on which side of the railroad tracks people lived. These early experiences instilled a call for justice in young Dulio, and in over 22 years of legal practice, he has recovered millions of dollars for Californians injured on the job, always with a focus on the lives and needs of working individuals and their families.
