Biography:  
   
James G. (Gil) Middlebrooks is a partner at the law firm of McGuireWoods, LLP and has re-energized the practice of education law for public school systems. He has served as principal and primary outside counsel to many local boards of educators, including the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Board of Education that operates one of the nation's largest urban school districts. Gil recently completed a term as chair of the North Carolina Council of School Attorneys. He speaks frequently nationwide on education topics, and his presentations at the National School Boards Association conventions and LRP's National Institutes on Educating Individuals with Disabilities have garnered high acclaim.
 
In addition to his education practice, Gil is currently litigating a number of commercial cases involving complex antitrust, construction and insurance coverage issues. He also counsels clients on antitrust compliance at state, national and international levels. Gil was previously a member of Helms, Mullis & Wicker, PLLC in Charlotte, North Carolina and an associate of Hogan & Hartson in Washington, D.C.
