Meet Your Attorney
Monika Kumar
Attorney · Dentist · Patient Advocate
Dr. Monika Kumar, DDS, JD, DABOI, FAGD Diplomate, American Board of Oral Implantology | Diplomate, Dental Sleep Medicine Fellow, Academy of General Dentistry. With over 20 years of clinical experience, Dr. Kumar has placed hundreds of dental implants and implant-supported dentures, restoring confidence and smiles for patients across Frisco and the greater Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex. Her practice focuses on providing high-quality, affordable, and long-lasting implant solutions using advanced technology and evidence-based techniques. Dr. Kumar serves as a National Examiner for the American Academy of Implant Dentistry (AAID) and is a Fellow of the Academy of General Dentistry (FAGD)—recognitions that highlight her dedication to excellence in both clinical practice and education. Dr. Kumar finished her Law degree from UNT Law School and accepted the responsibility to serve as guardian of society as attorney at law. Monika Kumar is uniquely qualified to represent individuals who have suffered injuries affecting their health, quality of life, and future well-being. As both a licensed dentist and attorney, she understands how injuries impact patients far beyond what medical records and insurance reports reveal.
A Rare Combination
The Only Texas Injury Attorney Who Is Also a Licensed Dentist
Monika Kumar's path to law began in the dental chair. After earning her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree and practicing as a licensed dentist, she witnessed firsthand how dental injuries and medical negligence could devastate patients' lives — and how difficult it was for those patients to find legal representation that truly understood their injuries.
That experience drove her to pursue her Juris Doctor and dedicate her legal career to representing injured individuals. Today, she is the only Texas injury attorney who brings both a dentist's clinical training and a lawyer's advocacy skills to every case.
This dual credential is not just a distinction — it is a strategic advantage for every client she represents. Where other attorneys must rely on hired expert witnesses to interpret dental records, Monika reads them with the same precision she used in clinical practice.
