Professor Robinson O. Everett of the Duke University School of Law is of counsel to our firm. Professor Everett, one of America's most respected experts on military law, served as chief judge of the United States Court of Military Appeals (now the Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces) from 1980 until 1990 and is the founder of the Center on Law, Ethics and National Security at the Duke Law School. He is the author of Military Justice in the Armed Forces of the United States, a leading textbook, and of numerous articles on military justice, criminal procedure, redistricting and other legal topics.

During 1961-64 Professor Everett served part-time as counsel to the Subcommittee on Constitutional Rights of the Senate Judiciary Committee. As a consultant to the Subcommittee during 1964-66 he participated in studies and hearings that led to the enactment of the Military Justice Act of 1968.

Professor Everett has been active in bar and professional associations, having served as president of the Durham County Bar Association; as a member of the North Carolina State Bar Council; as both a member and chair of the American Bar Association's Standing Committee on Military Law; and as a member of the Advisory Committee on the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure and Evidence.

In 2004 he received the North Carolina Bar Association's highest honor, the Judge John J. Parker Award. In 2006 he was inducted into the North Carolina Bar Association's General Practice Hall of Fame.
