I am the Principal Attorney at Hill Law, PLLC. I focus my practice in the area of Matrimonial and Family law within Erie and Niagara counties.
Matrimonial and Family Law matters often require clients to discuss their innermost private and delicate issues that have a lifelong impact on their lives and the lives of their families. I pride myself on having the ability to make clients feel comfortable through emotionally strenuous times while preserving their trust and zealously advocating on their behalf. I firmly believe that is important to be caring, patient, and attentive to clients’ needs while maintaining open and honest communication. My goal is to get clients through what is likely one of the most stressful times of their lives as efficiently as possible while achieving favorable outcomes that are enduring and foresee potential conflicts that may arise.
I am a native of Western New York and received my Juris Doctor from Valparaiso University School of Law in December 2015. I sat for the February 2015 New York State Bar Exam and was admitted to the New York State Bar in June of 2015. Since that time, I have practiced exclusively in the field of Matrimonial and Family Law. I am a member the New York State Bar Association, the Minority Bar Association of Western New York, the Women’s Bar Association of New York (Western New York Chapter), and the Erie County Bar Association.

The best!
Marissa is a professional, thoughtful and caring attorney who knows the law. She assisted me in getting visitation established with my granddaughter. She was always available whenever I had a question or a worry, returned calls promptly and kept me in the know at all times. She cared and that meant a...

The best!!
I have so many positive comments regarding Marissa’s professionalism and results I do not know where to start. My first consult with Marissa was for custody/visitation (my son’s father thought it was amusing to play with the family court system); however Marissa did not. After a positive consult, I h...

Search No Further - Marissa IS OUTSTANDING
When I retained Marissa to handle my divorce, I didn’t just get an exceptional, highly competent and knowledgeable Attorney. I also got a kind, caring, genuine person who ultimately cared about me as a person, not just as a client. My first call to her wasn’t scheduled, but the timing was right and w...

While trying to deal with an upsetting situation on my own, I was referred to Marissa M.

Relieved
Marissa did a fantastic job keeping my divorce very amicable, simple and fast. Anytime I've had a question she answers my emails or phone calls within a day and that's if she's not available. Her explanations are clear and she does a great job setting real expectations. As miserable as it is getti...
