THE DEAN
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 provides
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.
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 learning
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
