Throughout his legal career, Bill has demonstrated his commitment to professional and personal growth. He is both a passionate student and generous teacher of the psychological and clinical aspects of trial advocacy. Bill has taught advocacy for the Trial Division of the Oregon Attorney General's Office, the state's largest "law firm," and has been a guest lecturer at Harvard Law School's Trial Advocacy Workshop.

Bill's wealth of knowledge and experience culminates each year with Barton's Litigation Boot Camp. Each boot camp consists of 24 hours of instruction spanning two weekends about six months apart. Participation in the workshop is by invitation only and is limited approximately ten lawyers in each camp. Participants are carefully selected and must desire a career as a civil jury lawyer. Emphasis is on concepts and strategy.
