About Anika Boyce

The story behind the practice.

Anika Boyce is a native of Orlando and a dedicated advocate for individuals throughout Central Florida. She earned her undergraduate degree in English, with a minor in Criminal Justice, from Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University before obtaining her Juris Doctor from Florida State University College of Law.

Following law school, Anika returned home to Orlando to serve as an Assistant Public Defender, where she gained extensive courtroom experience representing clients in a wide range of criminal matters, including juvenile offenses, domestic violence cases, misdemeanors, and serious felonies. As a criminal defense attorney, she has successfully handled 19 jury trials and 9 bench trials, sharpening her reputation as a strategic and fearless advocate inside the courtroom.

In addition to her criminal defense practice, Anika has experience in civil litigation with a focus on personal injury matters, including automobile accidents, trucking accidents, slip and fall incidents, and premises liability claims. Her diverse legal background allows her to advocate effectively for clients facing some of life's most difficult and uncertain moments.

Beyond her legal practice, Anika is deeply committed to community leadership and mentorship. She previously served as Chair of the Membership Committee for the Paul C. Perkins Bar Association and has participated in civic and political engagement initiatives throughout the community. She is also passionate about mentoring young people and exposing them to opportunities within the legal profession.

For Anika, Liberate Legal, PLLC represents far more than the practice of law. To liberate means to set free, and it is her mission to help free clients from the weight, uncertainty, and stress that often accompany the legal system. Through compassionate counsel, strategic advocacy, and relentless representation, Anika is committed to helping her clients move forward with confidence and peace of mind.
