I am an officer for a non-profit and we hired Jim Campbell of Campbell-Flannery for two tasks:…read more1) Represent us in the sale of assets and develop an agreement for such a sale 2) Represent us in a law suit against our Treasurer who mis-appropriated funds For the asset sale, we expected Jim to use his legal knowledge to keep us out of trouble when selling or otherwise disposing of assets. He wrote up an agreement to sell all of our assets and when the IRS saw it after the sale, they said it was an illegal sale of assets. The agreement Jim wrote was illegal in its basic makeup. He even had a paragraph in the agreement that spelled out the illegal part of the transaction. We hired him to keep us legal and he did just the opposite. He clearly did not know what he was doing. In court he did even worse. He said he would request certain documentation from the defendant and never followed-through with that. He filed documents with the court that had the wrong name for the organization on them, as if he was using some type of boilerplate document and failed to change the names. He did not familiarize himself with the case, even though I personally provided him with a great deal of material. When opposing counsel started to tear him apart, he was not able to think on his feet and came up with a pathetic approach that made no sense at all. I could see the judge and everyone else (including me) perplexed at his line of questioning that only reinforced the case being presented by the defendant's competent attorney. It was embarrassing. He failed to call any of our witnesses to the stand, even though several had been subpoenaed. He was late for trial, missing a pre-trial meeting, and it seems that all he wanted to do was to get it over and move on to something else. The judge had no problem tossing the case out. In my experience, Jim Campbell has limited knowledge of the law; no instincts to help in unfamiliar situations in court, and no real desire to do much of anything besides collect his fees. He clearly is NOT an attorney who I would hire again for ANYTHING.

The Virginia Board's findings of ethical violations under the Virginia Rules of Professional Conduct conclusively established Amberly's violations of Rules 3.3(a)(1), 4.1(a), 8.1(a), and 8.4(c) of the Delaware Lawyers' Rules of Professional Conduct." Enough said about this attorney. Avoid him at all costs; he is pure trouble.

In law, it is not usually about your legal opinion, it is more if you know if the law is applicable or not. It is sometimes tough to make an effective legal argument with all the details to bring a lawsuit or defend a lawsuit. I found Mr Amberly very detailed oriented an committed to his clients. He has the time to listen to you, and navigate through complicated realm or law. He has extensive experience and knowledge in trademark, business contracts, and Franchising law. Time and resources spent with Mr Amberly is very valuable, it is just easy to navigate the legal system with him.

I had a consultation with Lee Berlik to discuss a threat I received for a completely frivolous…read morelawsuit. I wanted to explain the situation, bring all documentation, and get an honest assessment as to whether or not I should be concerned about this meritless suit -- could this potentially become a serious headache and attempt to just get me to spend a lot of money for a case that would, no doubt, be dismissed? Lee listened to me; he asked the right questions; and confirmed my assumptions that the other attorney threatening a lawsuit had no legal bearing to do so. I felt so much better after our consultation, at least knowing that 1) What I assumed was validated; and 2) If I receive further threats against this attorney, I know who to call and who will be able to help me put a stop to the nonsense and abuse to our legal system. The consultation with Lee was worth every penny!

Very rarely does any judge sustain a demurrer. A demurrer says a complaint is not grounded in law…read moreand should be dismissed outright. In this case, unable to handle getting dumped by his ex, Plaintiff - Mr. Atchuthan Sriskandarajah (an attorney himself) - filed a defamation complaint against his ex & two other parties. The complaint was rather stupid and had very little substance. Mr. Lee Berlik represented the Defendants and absolutely crushed the Plaintiff. In fact, during discovery, when the Plaintiff realized that the case was backfiring on him, it was hilarious to see the Plaintiff cave in so quickly from his original request of $2.5 million down to 10,000 dollars. In the end, Plaintiff did not get even a penny & his case didn't make it past the demurrer. Plaintiff even tried going to the supreme court but the supreme court did not even want to listen to such a stupid complaint. I know enough about defamation law to tell a good attorney from a bad one. Lee is the best defamation attorney & knows the law inside out. I would highly recommend Lee!
