Marshall R. Sumrall was born in Houston, Texas and grew up in the Houston area. Marshall’s interest in law began long before he attended law school. He has always been fascinated by the law and in his spare time he enjoys studying case law and strategies to apply in court. He has previously served as an investigator for the Montgomery County Public Defender’s Office, in Rockville, Maryland; a clerk of court for Harris County Court in Houston, Texas; and as a public defender in the Cortez and Pagosa Springs Municipal Courts, and the Tribal Court in Towaoc, Colorado. He is experienced in various fields of law including criminal, personal injury, civil disputes, estates, and probate.

Marshall’s diverse background in law brings unique insight into situations where different fields of law intersect. For example, auto accidents often result in both criminal charges and a personal injury claim. Experience in both of these areas provides a more comprehensive view of the actors and legal mechanisms in play. This can be a vital benefit to the client. Marshall utilizes professional contacts and collaborates with specialists and experts when necessary to achieve the optimal results for a client.
