Monica started her legal career with Keystone in March 2015 straight out of law school, and immediately began to impress her colleagues and clients. Monica has demonstrated an innate ability to quickly master complex legal issues, and her colleagues have utilized her skills and abilities to contribute to many of the firm’s most challenging probate litigation matters over the past few years. As Monica’s skill set has developed, she is serving as the primary handling attorney for many of the firm’s cases. We are excited to continue to have Monica as an integral part of the team.
