Biography

Ridge Mazingo is a trial lawyer who litigates catastrophic injury and wrongful death cases. He also handles securities fraud class actions and complex mass torts.

Since joining Motley Rice, he has supported a cross section of litigations. He worked with the firm’s securities litigation team on the judicial approval process of the $809.5 million dollar settlement with social media company Twitter which resolved allegations of financial misrepresentation to shareholders.*

Ridge represents individuals with ovarian cancer as an alleged result of talcum powder usage. He has been a member of multiple trial teams and has experience with all phases of litigation from complaint filing to case resolution. Whether representing a client who lost a loved one to a defective product, or an institutional investor in a securities fraud matter, Ridge stands up for those who have been hurt by corporate misconduct.

Prior to law school, Ridge gained valuable experience in state government as a Legislative Aide in the North Carolina House of Representatives and worked with a state legislative-focused lobbying and consulting firm. While attending law school, Ridge was a member of the North Carolina Law Review, and held legal internships with the N.C. Department of Justice Consumer Protection Division and a mid-size regional firm focusing on civil defense and transactional matters.

Ridge was also a volunteer firefighter for the Snow Hill Fire Department, where he received the 2011 Rookie of the Year commendation. Still active in his community, Ridge volunteers with Young Life Capernaum, an organization that creates community and belonging for youth with special needs and is active in his church community.
