Marcellus Bolden

Staff attorney

Marcellus handles firings, discrimination and harassment, and runs the clinic’s evening sessions.

Marcellus was the first in his family to finish college. He spent a summer in the clinic as a law student and came back after he passed the bar.

He handles matters about firings, discrimination and harassment, and leads the clinic’s evening sessions, which exist because most workers can’t take a call during the day.

How Marcellus works

Marcellus thinks most people already know what they need to prove; they just haven’t put it in order. He listens first, then helps them build a timeline they can read back and correct.

He plays bass in a weekend band and is happiest with a long evening ahead of him.
