The College is an intensive, five-day workshop that provides practical hands-on training for trial lawyers. It culminates in a half-day mock trial with live jurors and judges in a Maricopa County Superior Court courtroom. The program is designed to significantly develop and refine the skills necessary for excellence in trial practice.
Students should be familiar with basic trial practice procedures. Each day students MUST be prepared to present the practice case. Each day students will make a presentation of a part of a trial and should have that part prepared in advance of the presentation. For example, on Tuesday morning students will make an opening statement and should prepare the opening statement before they arrive on Tuesday. The better prepared our students are in advance the more they will get out of this experience.
