Our Mission

At Shaheen & Gordon, we are deeply committed to diversity, equity and inclusiveness as fundamental pillars of our firm’s ethos and societal responsibility. We recognize that embracing diversity not only enriches our workplace and enhances client service but also fosters positive change in our communities. We are dedicated to listening and learning from each other and our communities as we seek ways to remove barriers for our staff and for our clients.

Guided by our core values of honoring and celebrating differences, supporting and empowering all individuals, and acknowledging challenges, we commit to taking active steps to promote equity and justice for people of all racial, ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds, belief systems, sexual orientations, gender identities, cultures, and abilities.

Shaheen & Gordon Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Summer Intern Program!

The Shaheen & Gordon Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Summer Program offers a 10-week summer employment opportunity for 2-4 first- or second-year law students. Interns will spend 6 weeks working in our NH and ME offices on high-quality legal work with experienced attorneys, followed by 4 weeks at a regional non-profit partner. Interns are paid at the salary rate of a first-year associate, and placements at non-profits will consider both intern interests and partner needs.

Upon completion, first-year interns may receive an offer to return, and second-year interns may receive an employment offer. If no positions are available, S&G will assist in finding post-law school employment. The program is open to all law students, regardless of protected characteristics.

Interested students should submit an unofficial transcript, resume/CV, and a personal statement (500-1,000 words) on resilience, academic or leadership achievements, and overcoming adversity. Send materials and questions to Alexander Spadinger, co-chair of the DEI Committee, at aspadinger@shaheengordon.com.
