Shepherd, Christina M.

Christina Shepherd joined the firm in 1985 after graduating cum laude from Suffolk Law School. Since that time, Ms. Shepherd has successfully represented clients in the area of personal injury litigation helping to obtain fair and full compensation for the needlessly injured and their families. One of Ms. Shepherd's achievements include her role as co-counsel in the firm's recent multi-million dollar settlement obtained on behalf of a client paralyzed as a result of emergency room negligence.

In addition to her work on the firm's medical malpractice cases, Ms. Shepherd has successfully represented clients in all areas of personal injury litigation including those injured in automobile accidents, and as a result of premises defects, defective products and sexual abuse. "It is incredibly rewarding and gratifying to help someone who has been wrongfully injured and does not know where to turn. I enjoy getting to know each of my clients and establishing a personal relationship. From our first contact through the time of my successfully resolving their claim, I strive to make my clients comfortable and know that I will capably advocate on their behalf."

Ms. Shepherd is a member of the International Legal Fraternity of Phi Delta Phi and has been admitted to practice law in Massachusetts, Rhode Island and the Federal District Court of Massachusetts.

Outside of the office environment, Christina spends her much of her time engaged with her children and their many activities. Christina coached youth soccer for many years, served as a board member of her town's soccer association; is past president of the Parent Association for a local Montessori School and can most often be found at the barn or equestrian event watching her daughter ride competitively.
