Of counsel
Monica McDonough Leone received her undergraduate degree from Rutgers
College, Rutgers University in New Brunswick, New Jersey. After working in
the insurance industry for several years, Mrs. Leone returned to the academic
environment and earned her law degree from Widener University School of Law

worked for the Pennsylvania Department of Education. Mrs. Leone is admitted
to the Bar in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Mrs. Leone joined the Lewis

catastrophes. With many sisters, nieces and women friends, Mrs. Leone is
especially interested in the healthcare issues affecting women through
pregnancy and as they age.
