The Shepard Law Firm was originally founded in January of 1998 by attorney Michael Shepard. It is a boutique law firm that concentrates its practice in complex civil litigation. The attorneys and staff of the Shepard Law Firm focus their energy on cases involving toxic torts, including asbestos disease, medical drug and device litigation, lead paint, and others. The Shepard Law Firm also handles cases involving products liability, transportation injury, nursing and rehabilitation home abuse and neglect, and other types of complex litigation. The firm’s focus has always been on providing injured parties personal service and top-notch legal expertise. The firm limits the number of cases it handles so that the attorneys and staff can give each case the attention and care that we would expect our own case to receive. We regularly litigate cases involving fifty or more defendants, many of which are Fortune 100 companies, such as Ford, GM, Northrop Grumman, General Dynamics, Boeing, McDonnell-Douglas, and the like. Our track record speaks for itself. The Shepard Law Firm has achieved verdicts and settlements for our clients in the hundreds of millions of dollars. While we are very proud of the work we do, what matters to us most is the personal relationships we develop with our clients. There is nothing more satisfying than helping a client through a very difficult and trying time, and knowing that you made a difference in their life.

The Shepard Law Firm is defined by three ideals that have governed its growth and the way in which clients are served.

Comprehensive.
Members of The Shepard Law Firm recognize that their role as legal representatives is enhanced by the personal relationship they establish, develop, and maintain with each client.

Compassionate
Members of The Shepard Law Firm truly believe that attorneys can and must be more than "hired guns" who fight their clients’ battles in the courtroom. Clients depend on the firm to provide not only expertise on the laws, regulations and procedures applicable to their cases, but also for guidance on the choices that will affect their lives and their family’s well-being.

Dedicated
Through knowledgeable and aggressive representation of victims and their families, the Shepard Law Firm has built a reputation as a thorough and talented group of litigation attorneys. The firm’s name has become synonymous with the dedication of resources, energy, talent and effort in defense of the client.
