Marley Jones grew up in Shoreview, Minnesota, and attended the University of Georgia, graduating summa cum laude with a Bachelor of Social Work. Returning home to Minnesota, she earned her Juris Doctor summa cum laude from Mitchell Hamline School of Law, graduating third in her class with a Certificate in Health Law and Health Care Compliance. During law school, Marley served as a staff editor for the Mitchell Hamline Law Review, secretary of Out!Law (Mitchell Hamline’s LGBTQ+ legal student group), and was a two-time recipient of the CALI Award of Excellence.

Prior to joining Nigh Goldenberg Raso & Vaughn, Marley gained extensive judicial insight into court procedures and honed her legal research and writing skills. She served as a judicial clerk for Judge Rachel Bond at the Minnesota Court of Appeals, a legal resident for Justice Gordon Moore of the Minnesota Supreme Court, and a judicial intern for Judge Jerry Blackwell of the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota. She also worked as a law clerk in the mass torts division of a plaintiffs-side law firm in Minneapolis.

At NGRV, Marley leverages her judicial clerkship experience to assist clients in navigating the complex legal issues that arise in multi-district litigation. She is excited to practice with an innovative, high-integrity legal team dedicated to ensuring every individual has a voice and receives just compensation for their injuries—no matter how large the corporate defendant.
