Welcome to Campbell Shatley. We provide a full array of legal services with an emphasis on quality, efficient representation for our clients.
Firm History
After a number of years at a successful law firm in Asheville, Chris Campbell and Dean Shatley founded Campbell Shatley in 2009 primarily as a boutique firm focusing on educational law. The firm expanded to represent clients outside the area of public education. The addition of John Henning, Jr. has allowed the firm to continue expanding, utilizing his work experience in real estate, business corporation formation and governance, and estate planning and administration. With the experience and talents of Walter Currie, who is Of Counsel with the firm, Campbell Shatley provides its clients with the benefit of a lifetime of knowledge and success in the law.
Our attorneys are resourceful problem solvers with an expansive knowledge base and years of experience in employment law, litigation and institutional representation. From our first day, our firm represented over 30 public and private educational institutions. Since then, we have rapidly expanded our practice areas in order to serve a broader client base needing the specific skills and talents we offer. We also represent area businesses and individuals, including representation of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, the Town of Valdese, the Town of Franklin, and various insurance and liability coverage providers.
