About Marissa
Marissa Balius graduated from Baylor Law School with a J.D. in 1994. She completed her legal education in the mid-1990s and moved into practice during a period of significant change in the legal profession. That classroom training laid the foundation for a career that spans decades.
After law school she entered private practice. Over the years she handled matters that are typical for a general civil practitioner. Her work through the late 1990s and early 2000s gave her experience in courtroom procedure, client counseling, and transactional work. She remained active in bar and professional circles and kept current on developments in the law.
In 2005 she became part of Albin Yates Balius Roach. That association is listed as part of her professional history and appears on records of firms where she has worked. Her time at the firm has been an important chapter in her career. Colleagues at the firm have worked with her on case preparation and client intake, and she has taken part in the firm’s collaborative approach to handling matters.
She maintains memberships in professional associations and participates in the continuing legal education such organizations provide. Those memberships are listed as current and reflect ongoing engagement with colleagues across practice areas. She uses those contacts and resources to stay informed about changes in law and procedure.
Balius combines courtroom experience with practical client advising. She has handled a mix of litigation-related tasks and transactional matters, adapting to the needs of individual clients and the firm. Her approach tends toward careful case management and clear communication. She prepares filings, meets with clients, and coordinates with experts when cases require outside analysis.
Today she is based at Albin Yates Balius Roach. She continues to practice from that office and remains active in the local professional community. Her current practice focuses on representing and advising clients through the matters she handles at Albin Yates Balius Roach.
