Marina Kovačević

In-House Counsel (480) 569-2377

In the course of her career, Marina has fought for civil rights through legal and political advocacy.

Before joining the Houk Law Firm, Marina worked as an independent legal contractor at a local law firm representing clients with employment and labor matters. She explored her political passions by doing political consulting work as a Political Compliance Specialist where she helped elect top Arizona officials and grass roots political organizations. She has been the head of fundraising for a successful Congressional campaign. She worked as an immigration law clerk, representing indigent clients from Central and South America to obtain a legal pathway to citizenship.

As a child, Marina immigrated to the US as a refugee from Bosnia and Herzegovina and went on to graduate from Arizona State University (ASU). She received her JD from ASU’s Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law with the highest honor distinction for pro bono service. As an ASU student, Marina volunteered with the Human Rights Campaign and Amnesty International, interned with the ACLU and the Arizona Justice Project, participated in ASU’s immigration clinic, and served as Executive Manager of the Law Journal for Social Justice.

Marina comes from a close-knit family and loves travel and fashion.
