About Rebecca
Rebecca Shea completed an accelerated course of study in the liberal arts and law, earning a B.A. in English and Politics from Saint Anselm College in 2020 and a JD/MBA from Suffolk University Law School the same year. The dual-degree credential signals training in both legal analysis and business principles. She arrived at law practice with academic exposure to writing, rhetoric and policy.
Her time at Suffolk University Law School combined classroom study and practical skills training. She studied core subjects that form the backbone of state practice, and she also took courses that tied legal reasoning to business decision-making. That combination shaped her early interests in advising clients on legal issues that intersect with organizational and transactional concerns.
After completing her degrees, Shea entered private practice as a lawyer at Greene LLP. At the firm she joined colleagues who handle matters arising under Massachusetts law. Her role requires daily legal drafting, client counseling and courtroom work when cases proceed to litigation. The work is both research-driven and client-facing, and it calls for the kinds of written advocacy developed in law school.
She is a current member of the State Bar of Massachusetts. That membership keeps her connected to developments in Massachusetts statute and case law, and it provides a professional network she relies on for collegial exchange and continuing legal education.
Colleagues describe her approach as methodical. She attends to factual detail and legal precedent, and she prepares filings intended to be clear and useful to judges and clients alike. She also works on transactional matters that benefit from an understanding of business concepts, drawing on the MBA portion of her training when assessing commercial implications.
Shea’s practice at Greene LLP involves both dispute resolution and preventative counseling. She spends time drafting briefs and agreements, conducting legal research, and preparing clients for hearings. Her caseload is tied to issues that arise under Massachusetts law and to matters that require practical business judgment.
She now works out of Greene LLP’s offices and represents clients in matters governed by Massachusetts law.
