“Given the extraordinary large volume of high-profile jury trials conducted by the senior partners at Campbell & Williams, it hardly comes as any surprise that there has been abundant press coverage of the many record setting verdicts the firm has achieved. As a result, major news organizations including ABC News, CNN, and MSNBC have called upon the firm, and particularly partner J. Colby Williams, to represent them in a wide variety of First Amendment related litigation.”

“Donald J. Campbell wrote a brief that should reside in an art museum somewhere. It was devastating, brutal and absolutely hilarious, damn, it was a masterful piece of writing. As sarcastic as William F. Buckley, with a dash of Jonathan Swift, maybe Clarence Darrow. If you need someone to carve the Thanksgiving turkey, put Don on your list. He conducted a deposition with the plaintiff that was painful to even read in a transcript."
