Campbell Walker

Campbell Walker has dedicated his career to representing injured people. As a plaintiff’s personal injury attorney, Campbell represents people who are injured by the negligence of others in state and federal courts across the State of Georgia. Campbell specializes in cases regarding trucking and automobile negligence, wrongful death, legal malpractice, and professional negligence.

Campbell’s dedication to representing injured people against big corporations and insurance companies brought early trial success. In his first jury trial as second chair on the trial team led by Darren Tobin, Campbell secured a record-setting $1.6 million personal injury verdict against State Farm for a bicycle-on-bicycle accident. Campbell’s achievements earned him recognition among his peers as shown by his inclusion in Super Lawyers Magazine as a “Super Lawyers Rising Star” every year since he began practicing law. Only 2.5% of all lawyers ever receive this honor, and it is virtually unheard of for any lawyer in any state to receive this honor in their first year.

Representing everyday people against powerful companies and the insurance industry is a privilege that Campbell does not take lightly. Campbell comes from humble beginnings to say the least, growing up on his grandparent’s farm near Bayou La Batre, Alabama–a small community on the Gulf Coast. In 2010, one of the largest environmental disasters to occur in the United States took place just down the road from Campbell’s childhood home. The Deepwater Horizon oil spill, caused by the recklessness and indifference of a powerful oil company, exposed Campbell to the harsh consequences that fall on everyday people when companies act negligently.

For years following that environmental disaster, Campbell watched people in his hometown fight for compensation only to come up against the typical delay, deny, defend playbook deployed by insurance companies and corporations. Those experiences instilled a deep-seated sense of justice in Campbell. Now, he enjoys leveraging the law to level the playing field and to ensure that his clients receive just compensation.

Campbell attended the University of South Alabama where he graduated summa cum laude with a bachelor’s degree in Anthropology and a minor in Museum Studies. Campbell was a member of the University Honors Program and an undergraduate research fellow. After his sophomore year in college, Campbell received an exclusive invitation to attend a rigorous pre-law program for undergraduate students at Florida State University’s law school. It was during that summer program that Campbell decided that he would become the first member of his family to attend law school.

After graduating from the University of South Alabama with highest honors, Campbell chose to work at a very well-respected personal injury law firm in Alabama for two years before moving to Atlanta to study at Emory University’s School of Law. At Emory, Campbell became a Managing Editor of Emory Law’s International Law Review. He also served as a student attorney at the Turner Environmental Law Clinic, and his grades earned him membership to the Dean’s List. Campbell continued gaining experience with personal injury cases throughout law school by interning for well-respected personal injury law firms in Atlanta where he assisted attorneys with complex litigation. Campbell joined Darren straight out of law school.

When Campbell is not working on his clients’ causes, he can be found at his local gym practicing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and lifting weights. He also enjoys spending time outdoors with his wife exploring Georgia’s public parks and waters.
