Malika Baker

Malika Baker focuses her practice on civil defense litigation, with an emphasis in product liability defense and commercial litigation.

Malika’s experience as an NCAA Academic All-American and team captain on the University of Kansas cross country and track and field teams influenced her approach to matters as a law student and now in practice—recognizing the strength of discipline, hard work, and diversity.

At KU Law, she served as the Vice President of the Black Law Students Association, and a member of the Dean’s Diversity Leadership Council and Women in Law. She further distinguished herself through advocacy as a member of the Phillip C. Jessup Moot Court team and a recipient of the W.
