Bar Groupie: The Story of How Judge Marie Weiner Fell in Love with Law

Born in Milwaukee, self-proclaimed “Bar Groupie” Judge Marie Weiner made her way to the Bay Area in her teenage years and eventually went to school at UC Hastings. In this episode, we talk about her impressive journey presiding over high profile California cases, being a partner at Cotchett, Pitre, Simon & McCarthy, serving on the Conference of Delegates Group for San Mateo County, and being elected as the president of the San Mateo Bar in 2000.  We discuss Marie’s passion for molding the law, a change in her workflow that she calls the “silver lining of the pandemic,” and how no matter how much she loved what she did, she prioritized having a work life balance. You can also hear about Marie’s rich personal life, filled with family, singing, and Star Trek.  Contact Information: Deborah Kemper, MBA:   [email protected]
