Monique Loy Fierro

As a civil litigation attorney, Monique is experienced in representing victims of trauma and vulnerable populations in the areas of employment, education, civil rights, and personal injury. Monique focuses on work to end discriminatory practices across all settings including education, employment, and housing. Her work encompasses all areas of civil litigation from personal injury cases such as car accidents, domestic violence, and sex abuse to broad civil rights litigation enforcing individual rights under state and federal law. Monique’s employment law experience spans from work to prevent discrimination, harassment, and unsafe and unhealthy conditions in the workplace to wage and hour disputes and farmworker protections.

Litigating cases before state courts, federal courts and administrative agencies, Monique has secured millions of dollars for clients facing discrimination and abuse. In her defense work, Monique has a successful history of securing dismissals and reducing liability for clients facing adverse litigation. Monique's goal is to meet each client where they are and fight zealously until a just outcome is obtained.

Monique volunteers with Equal Rights Advocates to provide pro bono representation to students filing Title IX claims in  university settings. She also volunteers her time with numerous organizations in Ventura and Santa Barbara counties that support access to justice and equality for all.
