Attorney J. Bryan Boyd
A native of North Carolina, attorney J. Bryan Boyd grew up in Asheville with an appreciation for people from all walks of life. Neither of Bryan’s parents went to college, but were dedicated, hard workers at a textile mill. While he didn’t grow up wanting for anything, he understood how hard times could be a layoff or an injury away, because it happened to others around him. Part of his upbringing revolved around helping people and meeting their needs, which is why he considered becoming a lawyer in the first place. By combining his natural talents, intelligence, and drive to help his community, Bryan sought to emulate his parents’ hard work and went into law.
Bryan excelled in law school, winning various awards, competitions, and honors. After he graduated, he went straight into a two-year clerkship for Justice Bob Edmunds in the Supreme Court of North Carolina. Then, an opportunity for him to teach at his alma mater, Campbell Law School, fell into his lap, and Bryan has since taught numerous attorneys now practicing throughout North Carolina and beyond. He subsequently became the director of the Legal Research and Writing department, and from there, became Campbell Law School’s Associate Dean for Academic Affairs. Bryan was also the Associate Dean for Administration at Liberty Law School in Virginia from October 2017 to August 2018.
“I step in whenever and wherever I see a need.”
Over the course of his career, Bryan has taught various areas of the law, from trial and appellate advocacy, to criminal law, to litigation. He has never backed down from a challenge.
When it comes to representing clients, Bryan has taught current and future attorneys how to do what they do best during trial.
Giving Clients One-on-One Attention
Bryan enjoyed teaching best when he could provide personal attention to his students. He is at his best when he is face-to-face with a person, working with them to find solutions for their problems, and making a personal connection with them.
A Compassionate Advocate for All
Bryan has witnessed how easily one event can derail an individual’s life – whether that’s a car accident or a hardship that came about through no fault of one’s own.
Bryan approaches his clients with a relatable grace and compassion, whether it’s good news or bad news. If it’s bad news, he works through it with them.
What drives Bryan in his day-to-day is the opportunity to do the best that he can for his clients. Every day is a new day to do what he can for people who need his help.
