Firm Information
Our attorneys were the first outside counsel to be invited to participate on the Executive Committee of the Product Liability Advisory Council, an influential industry association whose members represent a broad cross-section of product manufacturers. Our attorneys are very well connected throughout the profession and give back by holding leadership positions in many of these bodies that serve to advance trial practice. Many of them hold or have held leadership positions in local, national and international organizations dedicated to legal education or the advancement of the legal profession, including the American Board of Trial Advocates, the Defense Research Institute, the Massachusetts Bar Association, and the Massachusetts Defense Lawyers Association among others.

We are proud to point out that a number of Campbell Trial Lawyers have been recognized nationally and internationally by their peers for their dedication to clients, winning strategies, and the highest professional and ethical standards. Three of our shareholders are elected Fellows of the prestigious American College of Trial Lawyers, which admits no more than 1% of total attorneys in each state. This gives Campbell Trial Lawyers one of the highest concentrations of top-tier trial attorneys of any firm in the country. When Corporate Counsel magazine surveyed the Fortune 100 about which firms they use for torts litigation, Campbell Trial Lawyers tied for first place for the most number of mentions. This places the firm at the top of the list of "Litigation Kings" when the largest corporations in America look for go-to trial lawyers to handle high-stakes, complex torts litigation.
