Maya Kanaan graduated from Benedictine University in Lisle, Illinois in 2015 with a bachelor's degree in Political Science with a Pre-Law concentration and was a member of the trial advocacy team for two years. Maya went on to graduate from DePaul University College of Law in Chicago, Illinois and has been practicing law in the Greater Chicago area since 2019. Prior to graduating and during her time at DePaul, Maya clerked at a Plaintiff's personal injury firm for three years, building a strong foundation for a future career in personal injury.

Maya began her licensed legal career as an insurance defense attorney. During her two and a half years as an insurance defense attorney, Maya gained extensive experience in the courtroom, completing over 25 jury trials to verdict and hundreds of mandatory arbitrations in Chicago and the surrounding collar counties, making her comfortable presenting cases in front of a judge, jury and against her adversaries.

Maya has taken the experience and knowledge she has gained and applies it to her current role as a personal injury attorney, with a focus on automobile accidents, premises liability and construction negligence, while also lending a helping hand in cases involving civil sexual assault and medical malpractice. Maya advocates for the seriously injured and works to obtain favorable settlements, judgments and verdicts for her clients.
