Capehart Scatchard is a long-established law practice founded in 1876 in Camden, New Jersey by Thomas French. Today it is based in Mount Laurel, New Jersey, offering legal services with an emphasis on anticipating clients’ needs and advising preventative action to avoid trouble. The firm describes its service approach as a three-tier model: strong technical knowledge, practical efficiency with a can-do attitude, and interpersonal communication with clients. Its practice groups include labor and employment and school law, with leadership changes and new hires reflected in recent announcements. In late 2025, its Labor & Employment Group was acknowledged in the 2026 Best Law Firms edition for metropolitan recognition in four practice areas. The firm also participates in community fundraising events, such as the Bowl for the Kids fundraiser supporting Kids' Chance of New Jersey.
