W h e r e g r e at l a w y e r s a r e m a d e

Greetings:
Giving consideration to attend law school is a
significant life decision. A career in the law will open
unlimited possibilities, but it also requires hard
work, dedication, and desire to serve others with
your talents and abilities. There are many choices
of law schools, but I firmly believe there is no place
that will better prepare you to be a successful
lawyer and leader than Campbell Law School.
From the moment you walk in the door at Campbell
Law, you will experience a friendly and open
institution where everyone shares knowledge and
celebrates individual and collective success.
Inside our classrooms, our open door approach pro-
vides you access to some of the most engaging and
experienced legal educators. Unlike what you will
find at most law schools, the vast majority of our
full-time faculty have actually practiced law—
they understand the theoretical and practical
aspects of the law. Additionally, our adjunct faculty
—which includes several federal judges, members
of the North Carolina Supreme Court and Court of
Appeals, and attorneys from some of the region’s
most respected law firms—are second to none.
message from
The Dean
The synergy between students and faculty is the
basis of relationships that transcend office hours,
and contributes to one of the most academically
challenging and rewarding legal educations
available today.
At the same time, we are guided by a Christian
perspective through which you will find the freedom
to open both your mind and heart to not only learn-
ing the law, but applying it justly and in service
to others.
Outside the walls of Campbell Law School, the
legal, government, and business communities of
Raleigh and the entire region open their doors to
you with unmatched opportunities to learn and gain
first-hand experience.
At Campbell Law, doors are always opening for our
students and graduates.
Very best regards,
Melissa A. Essary
Dean and Professor of Law
Norman Adrian Wiggins School of Law
Campbell University

our vision
Campbell Law School is a highly demanding,
purposely small AND intensely personal
community of faculty and students whose aim,
guided by transcendent values, is to develop lawyers
who possess moral conviction, social compassion
and professional competence and who view the
practice of law as a calling to serve others and to
create a more just society.
The founding vision of Campbell Law School was a
distinctive program based on limited enrollment,
extensive student opportunities for
interaction with faculty and rigorous
intellectual and professional development.
Since 1976, the Law School has continuously pre-
pared its graduates to serve their communities with
legal skill and ethical and intellectual leadership—
living up to the noblest tradition of the counselor.
Our vision is realized through a demanding
academic program that holds students to the
highest expectations in thinking, preparation and
application. Students are challenged to make
relevant and valid judgments, to discriminate
among values and maintain the highest standards
of professional excellence. Small classes and a
supportive intellectual community help to develop
lawyers of strong moral character with
disciplined and creative minds.
Combining our rigorous academic program with
comprehensive skills training in trial and appellate
advocacy, legal writing, planning, negotiation and
client counseling, we bring together the theoretical
and practical to produce practice-ready
lawyers.
page 1 2011 ADMISSIONS CATALOG
We produce highly competent, deeply compas-
sionate lawyers who see the practice of law as a
calling to serve others and promote the
understanding that reconciling differences is as
important as winning cases. Our graduates become
effective advocates locally and throughout the world
for transformative legal and social justice, helping
those most in need.
We encourage our students to examine the relation-
ship between spiritual and legal issues, to
explore the theological foundations for law and to
consider how we can help achieve a more just and
merciful society. We recognize the immeasurable
dignity and worth of every person in a congenial
academic environment where everyone is treated
with kindness, civility and respect. We welcome
students from all faiths and secular moral
traditions, and are committed to free and
open discussion of ideas.
“A law degree from Campbell can open
endless possibilities for those who are
willing to work hard and stay focused.
The training I received in the classroom
and moot court program at Campbell
helped me start my career at the Legal
Assistance Foundation of Chicago.
My work at LAF positioned me to become an administrative
judge for the Illinois Human Rights Commission which, in turn,
allowed me to join the Keebler Co. in 1999. I became an employee
of the Kellogg Co. as part of a 2001 acquisition of Keebler, and
I have served as Kellogg’s Vice-President and Chief Counsel of
Labor-Employment and Intellectual Property since 2007. Where
can a Campbell Law degree take you? Anywhere you want to go.”

our academic program

Campbell Law School holds students to the highest
standards of thinking, writing and speaking. The
curriculum demands that students routinely make
relevant and valid judgments, integrate values and
maintain the highest standards of professional
excellence.
The curriculum’s challenging nature also stems
from our commitment to a professional legal educa-
tion, combining theoretical inquiry with practical
skills development.
To accomplish this goal, our course of instruction
is exceptionally rigorous. Success results from
students analyzing the law, constructing and
evaluating legal arguments, and resolving legal
problems.
Campbell’s program provides students with com-
prehensive skills training in planning, counseling,
negotiation, legal drafting, trial and appellate advo-
cacy, and alternative forms of dispute resolution.
To succeed at Campbell Law School students
must work hard, but they are supported by our
small class sizes and our faculty’s dedication to
mentoring students. Graduates appreciate the
academic demands as they enter the practice of
law, confident that they are fully prepared for a
successful legal career.

The curriculum that follows is required of all law students. Additional requirements for

COMBINED DEGREE OPTIONS
The Juris Doctor and Master of
Public Administration Program
The JD/MPA program is a dual degree offered through
Campbell Law School and
North Carolina State University.
This program enables students to earn both degrees
in four years of full-time study. If pursued separately,
it would take five years to complete the two programs.
Recipients of the JD/MPA will possess professional
credentials for a diverse range of careers in law, govern-
ment, nonprofit management, teaching, and research.
For admission to the JD/MPA program, students must
apply and be accepted to both programs separately.
Candidates who are admitted will typically complete
the first year at Campbell Law, the second year at NC
State, and the third and fourth years will be divided be-
tween the two schools to maximize course availability.
Students who are already in their first year of the MPA
program may reverse this admissions procedure if they
are admitted into Campbell Law for the subsequent
year. Similarly, students already in their first year of law
school may apply for admission into the MPA program.
The Juris Doctor and Master of Business
Administration Program
Offered through a cooperative
arrangement between Campbell
Law School and Campbell University’s Lundy-Fetterman
“There is no question that anything I have
accomplished in my professional life is directly
attributable to Campbell Law School. I was in
one of the early graduating classes (‘82). Now,
as Deputy Managing Partner and Head of
Litigation of a 900-lawyer firm with 20 offices
in the U.S. and abroad, I understand and
appreciate that the work ethic, professionalism
and determination that was instilled in me at Campbell has allowed me
to move through the ranks of one of the nation’s largest law firms.”

Padowithz Alce, Class of 2010

Campbell Law School is one of the smallest ABA-

accredited private law schools in the country. With a
limited first-year enrollment, students enjoy the many
advantages of a law school that remains purposely
small. Our size enables students to build a network of
relationships that extends far beyond graduation.

Drawn from across the country, our student body repre-

sents varied ethnic and social backgrounds. Each new
class combines students directly out of undergradu-
ate school, those with graduate degrees and students
pursuing second professional careers. We believe this
diversity enriches the character of the student body
and each student’s educational experience.

 a calling to serve others
Campbell Law School strives to produce highly competent, deeply compassionate lawyers who view the practice
of law as a calling to serve others. We want our graduates not only to be successful, but also to view the needs
of others as more important than their own and understand that reconciling differences is as important as win-
ning cases. Our graduates can then become effective advocates for legal and social justice, both in their local
communities and throughout the world.
The Senior Law Clinic
The Campbell Senior Law Clinic was created to serve
legal needs of low-income senior citizens in the greater
Raleigh area. Working under the direction of a licensed
attorney, students provide legal services and communi-
ty education on matters of importance to lower-income
senior citizens. The clinic focuses on a variety of cases,
including power of attorney, repossessions and debt
collection, fraud and consumer problems, guardianship
and nursing home questions.
The purpose of the Senior Law Clinic is to have our
students meet the needs of our clients by serving,
planning, doing, and reflecting.
“As a member of our state’s Supreme
Court and an adjunct professor at
Campbell Law, I regularly encounter both
Campbell alumni and students. My
experience has shown that Campbell
produces competent, ethical, and diligent
attorneys dedicated to the rule of law.
Campbell attorneys and students recognize and heed the profes-
sion’s calling to serve others, both in and out of the courtroom.”

The Juvenile Justice Project
The Juvenile Justice Project (JJP) is a collaboration
between Campbell Law School and the North Carolina
Governor’s Crime Commission. The program exposes
students to both the theoretical and practical aspects
of the mediation process in the context of restorative
justice.
The Juvenile Justice Project director and participating
students work with juvenile offenders that have been
referred from the area courts and schools with the intent
of resolving their cases outside of the juvenile court
system. Juveniles that have been charged with property
crimes, simple assault, and other non-felony crimes may
be eligible for this unique program. The primary goal of
the JJP is to help offenders and victims craft a solu-
tion that repairs the damage between the parties. The
process also helps juvenile offenders to take responsibil-
ity, acknowledge and apologize for their actions. Both
offender and victim must agree to participate in a series
of face-to-face meetings where
law students often assist in the
mediation process.
The JJP trains students in
the application of mediation
and other alternative dispute-
resolution processes. Students
have the opportunity to assist
in the mediation of juvenile law
disputes for the mutual benefit
of juveniles, the local commu-
nity and the broader adminis-
tration of justice.
a christian perspective on law and justice

As part of Campbell University, the Law School shares

in its purpose and mission to educate students from a
Christian perspective in a caring Christian community.
This perspective guides our professional choices, ac-
tions and directions. However, students from all faiths
or moral traditions are welcome at Campbell Law.

We believe that laws and legal institutions are subject
to a moral order that transcends human authority and
judgment. A central premise of this moral order is that
all human beings are created in the image of God, and
are endowed by God with certain natural rights and
obligations. These rights and obligations are the corner-
stone of true human dignity and must be respected by
every political order.
where everyone is treated with kindness, civility and
respect. While the Law School embraces an intellectual
perspective rooted in Christian tradition, it is commit-
ted to free and open discussion of ideas, and students
are under no obligation to embrace any particular way
of thinking.

We encourage students to examine the relationship

between spiritual and legal issues, to explore the theo-
logical foundations for law and to think differently about
justice and the legal system.

We intend for our faculty and graduates to engage the

larger academic, professional and social communities
as thoughtful persons of conscience and conviction,
who humbly bring perspectives of faith to legal and
cultural issues with the power of skillful argument and
an unfailing commitment to human flourishing.

Because we recognize that immeasurable dignity and

worth follow from our creation in the image of God, we
seek to preserve a congenial academic environment

“As a member of the inaugural class from Campbell Law, I am

proud of the tradition and standard we were able to set. It’s clear
now that Campbell lawyers are setting the bar high not only for
the practice of law, but also for community service.”

a reknowned advocacy program

In a national survey of law schools, Campbell Law School’s Advocacy program has been called the most
rigorous in the nation and has been honored with The American Academy of Trial Lawyers’ Emil Gumpert
Award. This award recognizes the most outstanding trial advocacy program in the nation.

While not every student intends to become a trial
lawyer, much of what any lawyer does — in or out
of a courtroom — involves some form of advocacy.
Throughout the Law School curriculum, courses
expose all students to the reality of the adversarial
process they will encounter in practice.
The Advocacy Program provides a solid foundation for
future litigators. The program places students in the
courtroom during each year of study, building on the
broad base of knowledge drawn from their required
courses.

Students Hone Their Skills in Interscholastic Moot Court team wins Best Brief and Oral
Client Counseling and Moot Court Competitions Advocate awards at National Competition

Campbell’s Client Counseling Association conducts Timothy Lendino,

Class of 2011
an annual intramural client counseling competition.
Competitors are evaluated on the basis of interview-
ing and counseling skills during a series of mock cli-
ent interviews. Winners of the competition represent
Campbell Law School in the regional ABA competi-
tion.

Campbell’s Moot Court Association conducts an an-

nual intramural appellate advocacy competition open
to all members of the second-year class. Competing
teams write a brief and argue their case before a
panel of judges. Participation provides students with
the opportunity to hone their oral advocacy and ap-
pellate brief writing skills. Top performers represent
Campbell Law School in regional and national moot
court competitions.

certain student organizations.
Financial Aid Assistance
Legal education is an investment in your future and Camp-
bell Law School provides an extensive financial aid program

sion, and many students need to look beyond their own
resources for assistance. Please let us help you. For more
