Shaheen & Gordon, P.A. is excited to announce the hiring of Attorney Ralph L. Matthews. Ralph holds a medical doctorate in addition to a juris doctorate and joins the firm’s Personal Injury Group. He will be based out of the Dover office.
Ralphs’s work with injured clients is informed by formal training as an Anatomic and Clinical Pathologist. His concern over widespread medical errors and their outcomes inspired him to pursue a legal career. Since 2018, he has built experience investigating cases, managing legal panel hearings and mediations, deposing defendant healthcare providers, and consulting on medicolegal matters. Now returning to New Hampshire where his legal career began, Ralph hopes to fight against the carelessness of corporatized medicine and provide clients with informed, dogged litigation and advocacy.
“We are always looking for attorneys who bring unique experience to the table,” says D. Michael Noonan, Chair of the Personal Injury Group at Shaheen & Gordon. “Ralph’s medical background will be invaluable for any client dealing with an injury, whether due to medical or other negligence. We look forward to having him on the team and the perspective he will provide.”
