About Elisa Marie
Elisa Marie Overall arrived at law after an undergraduate course of study that examined how people and systems interact. She earned a B.A. in Human Biology from Stanford University in 2006 and later returned to Colorado to complete a J.D. at the University of Denver’s Sturm College of Law in 2017. Those two degrees frame a career that moves between client contact, policy work and courtroom practice.
Her legal training included a range of practical placements. Early on she worked as a Spanish language interpreter for Legal Nights through the Colorado Hispanic Bar Association in 2014. In law school she spent time in the Student Law Office, representing clients in 2015, and took summer positions that exposed her to municipal and nonprofit practice. She was a summer associate in the Town of Telluride’s legal department in 2015 and worked with Towards Justice in 2016. A judicial externship at the Colorado Court of Appeals in 2016 added appellate procedure to her practical background.
Those experiences translated into professional memberships that reflect both community ties and subject interests. She has been active in the Colorado Hispanic Bar Association since 2014 and joined its Legislative Policy Committee in 2019. She holds membership in the Colorado Criminal Defense Bar and has served on that organization’s Legislative Policy Committee since 2018. She is also a member of the Sotomayor Inn of Court and is an alumnus of the Latino Leadership Institute in Denver.
The pattern in her résumé is consistent. Work that involved direct client contact in the Student Law Office and service as an interpreter sits beside policy-focused committee work in bar organizations. Other roles exposed her to public-sector law in a municipal legal department and to impact-oriented practice at a nonprofit. The judicial externship offered a view of appellate reasoning and court processes.
Colleagues and contacts describe her approach as steady and practical. She brings courtroom preparation and written advocacy together with bilingual communication skills developed through interpreter work. That combination shapes how she approaches investigation, client interviews and legislative questions in criminal matters.
She is currently listed at The Noble Law Office and maintains active involvement in professional associations in Colorado. Her practice at The Noble Law Office centers on criminal defense and related matters.
