About Priscilla
Priscilla Frisby works at the intersection of law and language. She handles matters that arise in Arizona courts and appears before the Federal Circuit. Colleagues describe her as steady in the courtroom and precise with legal language. She moves easily between case files and the role of interpreter when proceedings require Spanish language assistance.
She earned her B.A. in Psychology and Spanish from the University of Arizona, completing studies in 2003 after beginning in 1998. That combination of subjects informs both how she prepares witnesses and how she reads testimony. Frisby went on to law school at California Western School of Law, finishing her J.D. in 2008 after starting in 2005. The two degrees form a practical foundation that she draws on in litigation and court appearances.
Frisby is admitted to practice in Arizona and is authorized to appear before the Federal Circuit. She also holds a credential as a Qualified Spanish Court Interpreter for the Pima County Superior Court. That certification permits her to serve in dual roles: as counsel and, when appropriate, as the official interpreter during proceedings. Her bilingual training is part of how she manages cases that involve Spanish-speaking witnesses or clients.
Her career path has combined courtroom work and appellate filings. She has experience preparing briefs and addressing procedural matters at both the trial and appellate levels. In the courtroom she focuses on clear communication, whether questioning witnesses or presenting arguments. Outside the courtroom she spends time drafting pleadings and coordinating filings that must meet both state and federal procedural rules.
Frisby’s academic background in psychology informs her approach to client interviews and witness preparation. Her Spanish studies and interpreter credential are practical tools in regions where bilingual presentation matters. She is comfortable handling translation during live testimony and overseeing the accuracy of translated documents.
She maintains an active practice in Arizona and accepts matters that require representation in state courts and filings before the Federal Circuit. Clients and courts draw on her legal training and interpreter qualification as needed. Her current practice concentrates on courtroom representation and bilingual court services.
