Prior to his election to the House of Representatives, Satterfield served as an assistant United States attorney from 1950–1953, a Richmond city councilman from 1954–1956, and in the Virginia House of Delegates from 1960–1964.
He was admitted to the bar in both Virginia and the District of Columbia. He practiced law in Richmond, and, after he left Congress, in Washington, D.C. and Arlington, Virginia.
