Brief Biography

Monique Lee became aware of social injustices growing up in Baltimore City. A middle school teacher’s encouragement of her passion for helping others led her to pursue a career in law.

One of her proudest accomplishments was winning a major Social Security disability case that required years of persistence and was featured in the Baltimore Sun. Monique Lee also secured a $1,700,000 verdict for premises liability involving a construction accident, dangerous condition, trip and fall, and related claims, which ranked among the Top 100 Premises Liability Verdicts of 2022.
