About us
Capitol Advocacy is a full-service government relations and advocacy company with the experience, knowledge, and relationships necessary to help you achieve your political objectives. We have decades of experience assisting clients in a variety of industries and sectors. In addition, many of our team members have previously worked for the state legislature, policy committees and governmental organizations that regulate these industries. STRATEGIC & CREATIVE POLICY ADVICE We’re known for more than our ability to win. We have built a reputation for becoming policy experts and for providing strategic direction that creates success for our clients and anticipates problems before there’s a crisis. AN UNMATCHED BREADTH OF EXPERIENCE Our experience cuts across a diverse array of industries and issues — from Hollywood to healthcare and fast food to Silicon Valley. We are teammates alongside corporations, charities, universities, and associations. And our clients stay with us, so our experience isn’t just broad, it’s long-standing and in-depth. KEY RELATIONSHIPS IN AN EVER-CHANGING LANDSCAPE California’s political landscape is nothing if not dynamic. The names, faces, and key players change with every campaign cycle. One thing, however, stays the same: as a dominantly Democratic firm in an increasingly blue state, Capitol Advocacy’s network of relationships continues to find success in Sacramento’s power structure. SENIOR LEVEL, ALWAYS Communicating with Capitol Advocacy will be easy. And when you do, you will always work with our top-level lobbyists. Our business model means there are no mid-level associates at Capitol Advocacy. You’ll have the expert, ‘round-the-clock point-person you need, and if we go to battle we will bring every senior-most resource we have to bear for you.

Capitol Advocacy is pleased to announce Dean Grafilo has been promoted to partner. Dean joined Capitol Advocacy in 2019; he is the Co-Chair of the firm’s procurement practice and works within the firm’s Healthcare, Financial Services, Technology, and growing Attorney General practices. Before joining Capitol Advocacy Dean was appointed by Governor Edmund G. “Jerry” Brown Jr. as the Director of the California Department of Consumer Affairs, which administers more than 3.9 million occupational licenses in the State of California. Prior to that appointment, Dean was the longest serving Chief of Staff to former State Assemblymember, now current Attorney General, Rob Bonta. “Since the day he joined our firm Dean has been a key member of our advocacy team,” said John Latimer, Managing Partner. “Dean’s commitment to thoughtful and thorough advocacy on behalf of our clients, and his depth of relationships across the state have been amazing to witness. All of us at Capitol Advocacy are proud to welcome him as our newest partner.” “Dean is highly respected within our capitol community and he is well known for his ability to deliver results on behalf of the firm’s clients,” said Kristy Wiese, Capitol Advocacy Partner. “As Capitol Advocacy looks to the future of the firm, we are fortunate to have Dean as a partner.” “I am beyond humbled to be recognized by my colleagues at Capitol Advocacy with this promotion,” said Dean Grafilo, Capitol Advocacy’s newest partner. “When I joined the firm five years ago, I did so because of the firm’s reputation of trustworthiness, work ethic and depth of clients and relationships in the state. I look forward to continuing the great success of Capitol Advocacy in this new role.”
