Marilee Marshall

Marilee Marshall is a Pasadena, California, criminal defense attorney who founded Marilee Marshall and Associates in 1981. Her California license is active, and the State Bar lists an office at 20 North Raymond Avenue, Suite 240. She was admitted to the California bar on December 1, 1981.

Trial defense and challenges to convictions both appear in Marshall’s case history. Her firm biography describes felony representation at trial and on appeal, including murder prosecutions and cases involving women who killed abusive spouses. It also identifies conspiracy to commit murder and gang-related homicide among her cases. The range extends to robbery and kidnapping, sexual offenses, domestic violence and assault, as well as fraud, theft, drugs and firearms.

For clients already convicted, the biography describes two distinct kinds of work: appeals for people on death row and efforts to obtain parole for people serving life sentences. The latter involved proceedings in superior and appellate courts. Her firm, which limits its practice to criminal defense, separately identifies trials, appeals and writs as its work, including parole-related writs for lifers.

Marshall’s undergraduate degree is from California State University, Fullerton, where she graduated with high honors; her law degree is from UCLA. Her professional biography lists admission to California state courts and federal district courts in California. It also lists the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals and the United States Supreme Court.
