About Yuri
Yuri B. Hill has been fighting for his clients since being admitted to the California State Bar. His client advocacy skills were honed at the University of Toledo, College of Law where in addition to his studies he was a member of the Trial Advocacy Team, interned extensively with federal and local public defenders, and served as president of the University of Toledo Defense of the Wrongly Convicted.
After passing the bar, Yuri entered into private practice in Sacramento focusing primarily on criminal law. His passion is being an advocate for his clients and standing in their place in the courtroom. Yuri’s first trial as a professional was a felony case in which he was able to win a favorable outcome for his client. He has not looked back since, as he has advocated for people facing traffic and misdemeanor charges to those with charges as serious as murder.
The United States Constitution gives everyone a right to a defense. Yuri takes this charge very seriously and his personal mission is to fight for his clients so that they can receive the best possible outcome for their case. He understands the pressures his clients and their families face going through these stressful situations. He makes it a point to keep lines of communication open with his clients until the matter is completed.
Yuri received his undergraduate degree from Howard University before attending the University of Toledo, College of Law. He is involved in several professional associations including sitting on the board of the Wiley E. Manuel Bar Association for three years.
In his spare time, Yuri enjoys spending time with his family, attending church, sports, and reading.
