Introduction
Ron Shepherd founded Shep Law Group in 2013, bringing a civil litigation background and a family history of hard work to a practice structured around responsiveness, transparency, and direct community connection as lifelong Idaho residents. The firm operates from 1990 N Meridian Rd, Meridian, ID 83646, reachable at (208) 887-3444, and represents clients throughout Boise and the surrounding neighborhoods. While personal injury and wrongful death anchor the practice, the firm’s range extends through criminal defense, family law, estate planning, workers compensation, real estate, and bankruptcy.
Practice Areas
Personal Injury
Shep Law Group handles the broad spectrum of personal injury claims that arise in the Boise metropolitan area. The practice focuses particularly on catastrophic injury cases where the stakes and complexity of representation are highest.
Catastrophic and Traumatic Brain Injury
Traumatic brain injuries require medical experts, careful long-term damages analysis, and attorneys willing to litigate aggressively. The firm’s track record includes a $50,000 settlement for a mild traumatic brain injury, establishing that even cases characterized as “mild” deserve full legal attention.
Wrongful Death
When negligent conduct causes a fatality, surviving family members have legal options. The firm has achieved a $1,500,000 wrongful death settlement, demonstrating the capacity to pursue maximum recovery in these cases.
Car Accidents
Results include a $385,000 head-on collision settlement and a $125,000 high-speed rear-end collision recovery. These outcomes across two different crash types reflect the firm’s range in automobile accident litigation.
Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcyclists involved in crashes often face aggressive insurance defense tactics. The firm counters with thorough investigation and, when necessary, trial preparation.
Drunk Driving Accidents
Cases involving impaired drivers may support claims beyond standard negligence. The firm pursues the full available recovery, including punitive damages where applicable under Idaho law.
Construction Site Accidents
Construction accident cases intersect workers compensation law with third-party personal injury claims. The firm’s experience in both practice areas allows for comprehensive representation of workers injured on job sites.
Defective Products
When a product failure contributes to injury, manufacturers and distributors may bear liability. These cases require product liability expertise alongside personal injury litigation experience.
Medical Malpractice
Medical malpractice claims require expert testimony and a thorough understanding of the standard of care applicable to the treating medical professionals. The firm handles these complex cases for Idaho clients.
Nursing Home Abuse
Elderly residents of care facilities deserve protection from abuse and neglect. The firm pursues accountability against facilities and caregivers whose conduct harms vulnerable residents.
Truck Accidents
Commercial vehicle collisions in Idaho produce severe injuries and involve multiple potentially liable parties. The firm investigates thoroughly to identify all responsible parties.
Bicycle and Pedestrian Accidents
Cyclists and pedestrians struck by vehicles suffer serious injuries with disproportionate frequency. The firm represents these clients in claims against negligent drivers.
Slip and Fall Cases
When hazardous property conditions cause injuries, premises liability claims can hold property owners accountable. The firm handles these cases throughout the Boise area.
Ski Accidents
Idaho’s ski industry makes mountain accident cases a relevant practice area for the region. The firm handles claims arising from ski resort accidents and other mountain recreation injuries.

Attorney Profiles
Ron Shepherd founded the firm in 2013 after years maintaining a successful general civil litigation practice. His background in construction litigation, creditor rights and collections, consumer protection law, commercial transactions, real estate transactions and litigation, and eminent domain (condemnation) informs the depth of the firm’s civil litigation capability. Shepherd chose law, by his own account, because he comes from a family of hardworking people and saw law as a way to challenge the status quo and improve society, a perspective that shapes the firm’s approach to representing injured individuals against well-resourced opponents.
Brenda Seeger serves as an attorney supporting Shepherd in the firm’s representation of clients. The team’s collective results include the $1,500,000 wrongful death settlement, the $385,000 head-on collision result, the $125,000 high-speed rear-end recovery, and the $50,000 mild traumatic brain injury settlement.
The firm prioritizes responsiveness and transparency as core operating values, attorneys are available evenings and weekends, and clients receive clear information about their cases and what to expect at each stage.
Location and Service Area
The firm operates from 1990 N Meridian Rd, Meridian, ID 83646, reachable at (208) 887-3444. As lifelong Idaho residents, the attorneys serve clients throughout Boise and the surrounding neighborhoods with the familiarity that comes from deep community connection.
Client Focus
Shep Law Group’s availability, evenings and weekends, not just business hours, is an operational commitment rather than a marketing claim. Accident victims rarely have the luxury of calling a lawyer during convenient hours, and the firm’s accessibility reflects an understanding of that reality. Combined with the firm’s stated priorities of actionable advice and clear expectations, this approach is designed to keep clients informed and supported throughout their case.
The firm’s willingness to pursue wrongful death cases and catastrophic injury claims, where the legal complexity and emotional difficulty are both highest, reflects attorneys who chose their practice areas deliberately rather than by default. The $1,500,000 wrongful death settlement and the catastrophic injury track record support that representation.
Quality work without unnecessary costs is a principle the firm articulates directly. It means clients are not billed for work that does not advance their case, and it means the firm’s lawyers focus on what actually moves the needle rather than generating activity.
