also known as Marie Pacyga
Marie Pacyga is a trial attorney at Pacyga Trial Lawyers with 15 years of experience in Minnesota courtrooms, representing clients in criminal defense and personal injury matters throughout the state.
Marie began her legal career as a judicial clerk, gaining a rare inside view of how judges, prosecutors, and defense attorneys build and evaluate cases — a perspective that continues to shape her strategic approach to every matter she takes on. She earned her J.D. from William Mitchell College of Law in St. Paul.
In criminal defense, Marie represents clients facing DWI, domestic assault, and drug charges, with a reputation for thorough trial preparation that often leads prosecutors to offer more favorable resolutions before a case ever reaches trial. Her results include full dismissals in serious cases and consistently strong outcomes for clients facing high-stakes charges.
That same trial-tested approach carries into her personal injury practice. Insurance companies negotiate differently with an attorney who has a proven record of taking cases in front of a jury — and Marie brings that leverage to every injury claim she handles, from auto accidents to more serious and catastrophic injury cases.
Clients describe Marie as calm, thorough, and relentlessly prepared, with a 5.0 rating built on real client outcomes. Whether in the courtroom or at the negotiating table, her focus stays the same: understanding her client's full story and fighting for the best possible result.

Great experience with Marie!
Marie was wonderful to work with and always informative about my case. She was right on top of court dates and let me know what to expect. I will say it was really tough to get a response from her assistant Misty, so I just started contacting Marie directly and she always responded.
Thank you for the feedback and review. I appreciate the opportunity to work with you!
