Marion Graeme Billson (1901 – 1958) was a British solicitor. Born in Leicester, Billson suffered as a child with a thyroid deficiency. She studied classics at Girton College, Cambridge and then in 1922 was admitted to the Inner Temple. However, she did not practice as a barrister, instead joining a solicitors' practice in Croydon. In 1934, she co-founded Copley, Singleton & Billson. In 1940, Billson represented Emily Lanceley at Croydon Magistrates' Court, winning an important case which established that a soldier could not reduce his court-ordered maintenance payments.
