About Anthony
Anthony Carr is licensed to practice law in five states: New Hampshire, Vermont, Maine, Massachusetts and Hawaii. He has built a practice that spans those jurisdictions and that reflects a steady career progression through law firms in the Northeast. His licensing across multiple states gives him a broad geographic reach for client matters.
Carr began his firm career as an associate lawyer in 2013 at Galiher DeRobertis Waxman. In that role he worked on client matters under the supervision of senior attorneys and gained experience handling the day-to-day demands of firm practice. Colleagues from that period recall his steady approach to casework and willingness to take on varied assignments.
In 2017 he joined Shaheen & Gordon, P.A. as a partner. The move marked a transition from an associate role into firm leadership. As a partner, Carr took on greater responsibility for managing client relationships, overseeing matters brought to the firm and shaping strategic responses to legal problems. His shift to partnership also broadened his administrative duties and involvement in firm-level decisions.
Carr’s multi-state admissions have shaped how he approaches client work. He accepts matters that require counsel admitted in multiple jurisdictions and coordinates filing requirements and procedural rules across state lines. That practical capability is useful for clients whose legal needs cross state borders or who face issues that touch several local courts. He handles matters at state and, where appropriate, federal levels in the jurisdictions where he is licensed.
Throughout his career Carr has combined courtroom experience with transactional and advisory tasks. He has experience working with clients on litigation strategy, documentation and procedural compliance. Peers describe him as methodical in preparing cases and attentive to the logistical challenges of multi-jurisdictional practice.
As of 2026, Carr is a partner at Shaheen & Gordon, P.A. He concentrates his practice on matters arising in the states where he holds admission and on coordinating legal work that spans those jurisdictions.
