About Hoge Fenton
Hoge Fenton is a Bay Area law firm serving businesses, individuals, and families from offices in San Jose, San Mateo, and Pleasanton. We advise clients on business transactions, employment matters, real estate and land use, litigation, intellectual property, estate planning, and family law. Our approach is straightforward: understand what matters to each client and bring together the right attorneys to help them move forward.
Legal needs rarely fit neatly into one practice area. Our attorneys work across disciplines to connect the business, financial, and personal considerations that shape a client’s decisions. Clients have a trusted point of contact backed by colleagues with focused experience across the firm. When a matter reaches beyond California, our international network helps connect clients with counsel where they need it.
