Nina Marino

This week Ivy Slater, host of Her Success Story, interviews her guest, Certified Special in Criminal Law, Nina Marino about litigation and white collar crime, building an international practice, and tips and strategies. 

In this episode, we discuss:

  • Building an international law practice
  • Growing a law practice through long-term relationships
  • What it was like early in her career being, young, blonde, and a woman
  • How to embrace your uniqueness to your advantage
  • Tips and strategies for other attorneys and professionals coming forward
  • Value of taking leadership roles in organizations

Nina’s complex litigation and white-collar crime practice is national and international. She negotiates with the U.S. Department of Justice, state attorneys general, District Attorneys, and Interpol in her defense of individuals alleged to be involved with Medicare fraud, Foreign Corrupt Practice Act violations and tax, cyber and other crimes.

Personal Commitment to Clients and Non-Traditional Approaches
Quite simply, Nina likes to save people. Right from the start, clients understand that Nina takes their cases as personally as they do.

Her presentations before U.S. Attorneys introduce new perspectives, compelling context and workable paths to resolution.

Nina’s unconventional combination of caring, integrity and formidable lawyering has earned her a national reputation and recognition. She discovers the shades of gray behind prosecutors’ black-and-white arguments to shine new light on her clients’ circumstances. Her team-driven, meticulously prepared strategies have repeatedly helped clients reach their objectives — from staying out of prison to defending allegations all the way to trial.

Advancing Criminal Defense Law
A prominent member of the criminal defense bar, Nina was recognized for more than 25 years of professional excellence as the recipient of the American Bar Association’s 2017 Charles English Award, the highest national award for work in the field of criminal justice.

Nina holds leadership roles on several ABA committees, including as a board member of the Criminal Justice Section Committee and as founder of the Women in White-Collar Subcommittee. In addition, Nina served as the Appointed Chair of the Ninth Circuit Lawyer Representatives, Central District of California.

A frequent media commentator, author and speaker, Nina has steered the conversation at numerous national and international conferences on white-collar crime and fraud. Her presentation topics range from international criminal investigations and public corruption to unconscious bias in expert testimony and regulatory issues related to virtual currencies.

Legal and Civic Leadership
Nina has championed women’s issues for more than two decades. She has helped change the gender composition of the ABA’s educational programming and spoken at the Los Angeles Business Journal’s Women’s Summit. At the Los Angeles Daily Journal’s Women Leadership in the Law series, Nina interviewed Eileen Decker, president of the Los Angeles Police Commission.
Nina is the founder of the Criminal Law Section of the Women Lawyers Association of Los Angeles (WLALA) and of the Los Angeles chapter of the Women White-Collar Defense Association (WWCDA). In addition, Nina serves on the board of directors of C5LA, which focuses on creating a path to college for underserved youth.

The Los Angeles Daily Journal and Los Angeles Business Journal have repeatedly recognized Nina for her influence and impact on the legal profession, and she is included among Best Lawyers’ top practitioners in white-collar criminal defense.

In 2020, the Daily Journal recognized Ms. Marino as one of the top white collar lawyers in California. Nina was named with 27 other practitioners and only 5 other women statewide. Also in 2020 Nina was recognized by the Los Angeles Business Journal as a Leader in the Law and a Top Woman Attorney, by the California Lawyers Association for Excellence in Practice, and International Advisory Expert recognized Nina as an expert in white collar crime.  Since 2004, Ms. Marino has been voted by her peers as a Southern California Super Lawyer and a Top Woman Lawyer.
