Overview

Content is provided by the firm.

Campbell & Williams is a boutique law firm by choice. Founded in 1986 as Donald J. Campbell & Associates, the firm’s founder, Donald J. Campbell, set out to build a practice where hard work and deep personal relationships would serve as the keys to its success. In 1998, the firm was renamed Campbell & Williams after J. Colby Williams joined the firm as a partner. Now, over a quarter-century later, that lofty goal has been realized. With a client list and track record of achievement as notable as any of the largest firms in the country, Campbell & Williams has the experience and expertise required to navigate its clients through the most complex legal terrain.

As for national recognition, U.S. News and World Report has named Campbell & Williams one of the country’s “Best Law Firms” in the fields of Commercial Litigation, First Amendment Litigation, White Collar Litigation, and White Collar Governmental Investigations. In addition, Chambers USA has awarded our firm a “Band 1” designation, which is the highest rating it assigns, in the practice area of General Commercial Litigation. Our firm has earned an AV “Preeminent” ranking for over twenty-five years, which is the highest rating for legal skill and ethical practices designated by Martindale-Hubbell. In addition, the firm’s senior partners have been named to Woodward & White's Best Lawyers in America for over twenty years, and in 2010, Super Lawyers selected Mr. Campbell as its Mountain State’s profile Lawyer of the Year.

Included among the firm's clients are gaming moguls, network news organizations, entertainers, sports franchise owners, professional athletes and leading political figures. But perhaps the firm's greatest compliment has been the frequency with which legal professionals, including judges and lawyers, have selected Campbell & Williams to represent them in matters of great personal concern.
