Firm History
Founded in 1983, the firm built its reputation on automotive product liability cases and has since broadened the practice to include all types of civil litigation, commercial litigation, intellectual property, employment and professional liability litigation in a wide variety of industries. The firm moved from its early offices in Cambridge, MA, and is now headquartered in Boston, with offices throughout New England and the mid-Atlantic. Our reach is truly national – we have tried cases in 34 states and act as regional or national coordinating counsel for a number of Fortune 500 companies. We encourage you to explore our site to learn more about our people, our expertise and our clients.
When you’re faced with an impending trial, it’s good to know someone’s got your back. The depth of our courtroom experience allows us to work each case with the entrenched efficiencies that come from decades of successful trial work and combine those with the attention to detail, intense preparation and dogged persistence that wins cases.
As our client, you will work closely with the senior trial lawyer in charge of your case and will have access to that lawyer at all times. When appropriate, associates and paralegals will perform the work to avoid higher costs. Our associates bring the same passion and dedication to each case as our most senior trial lawyers.
We are committed to the successful resolution of every case; however, not every case belongs in court. We are counselors as well as advocates: throughout the course of our representation, we advise and counsel clients about the relative risks, costs and benefits of continued litigation rather than settlement. Sometimes, mediation is the better course of action. For those clients interested in finding resolution short of trial, the very credible threat that Campbell Campbell Edwards & Conroy presents is often enough to settle even difficult cases to the clear advantage of our clients.
When to Call
Trials are unpredictable and timetables nearly impossible to nail down. Sometimes you may not know you need us until the last minute – that’s ok. Clients have called us to step in at all stages of a trial, and while it’s more efficient to take advantage of our talents at the beginning, we can successfully take over at any point in the process. For example, when Camp Robin Hood called on us just before trial was set to begin and previous counsel left us with no experts and very little useful material, we rolled up our sleeves and delved into the facts to produce credible evidence in support of our client and presented it to the jury in a way that left no doubt but to rule in favor of the camp.
If necessary, we can work seamlessly with your existing outside counsel who may require the depth of hands-on trial experience found only at Campbell Campbell Edwards & Conroy.
Our substantial appellate practice handles cases previously handled by other lawyers in the firm or as special appellate counsel in cases handled by other firms. Campbell Campbell Edwards & Conroy have won significant victories on appeal either upholding verdicts in our clients’ favor or reversing adverse rulings.
