Sheff and Cook is actively working to support the community and the victims of the horrific Apple storefront crash in Hingham at the Derby Street Shops. The law firm is currently representing several victims and their families and are committed to achieving full justice for all impacted by this terrible incident.

In the press conference on November 29th, Doug Sheff noted that, "For just a few dollars, a couple of barriers could've easily prevented this entire tragedy." Sheff displayed pictures of barriers at different Apple store locations and other areas in the actual Hingham shopping complex, demonstrating that while steps were taken to protect mechanical, electrical and even trash facilities, none were taken to protect human beings. He also noted how quickly barriers were placed in front of the store following the incident.
