For Potential Clients

The need for trusted legal counsel occasionally extends beyond your geographic area. For more than 125 years, Campbell's List has provided a directory of selected lawyers in general practice who are prepared to assist fellow attorneys and other clients. For your convenience, we also provide the names of court reporters and process servers.

Because we make the recommendation, the publisher expects to provide any necessary assistance. If one of our members is unable to accept your case, we would be pleased to suggest an alternate recommendation.

Referring attorneys act as associate counsel, generating fees based upon the division of work and responsibility. Campbell's List does not recommend a fee schedule and leaves that to what is customary and mutually acceptable between parties.

Law for Laymen
Nearly 30 law schools in the United States have or soon will offer a master's degree for nonlawyers -- up from just a handful two years ago.

Although the movement remains in its early stages, to administrators across the country it represents a promising counterpoint to waning interest in the traditional three-year J.D. degree. And while part of the incentive behind the trend is economic, the new direction also marks an effort to move legal education away from a one-size-fits-all model.

A paraplegic lawyer who has filed thousands of disability access suits is now facing a sex harassment suit by former employees, who also accuse him of something that has defense attorneys buzzing. The women say Scott Johnson sent them into businesses with cameras and measuring tapes, after which he would cite the findings in warning letters and filings, a potential violation of laws requiring plaintiffs to personally be denied access.
Dow Must Pay $1.2 Billion in Year's Biggest Damages Award
Although 2012 was the year of billion-dollar wins in patent cases, the largest award of this year so far has come in an antitrust case. A federal judge in Kansas has trebled the damages in a class action in which the plaintiffs alleged that Dow Chemical fixed prices for the chemical urethane. A jury returned a $400 million verdict in February, so the chemical giant is now on the hook for $1.2 billion.
Stop-and-Frisk Judge Relishes Her Independence
The judge presiding over one of the most politically charged cases in recent New York City history says her 20 years on the bench have taught her to "appreciate more than ever the words 'judicial independence.'" Shira Scheindlin, in an interview during the bench trial over the constitutionality of police anti-crime stop, question and frisk policies, said there are too many judges who don't want to deliver controversial rulings.
