The LSU Law Center would like to thank the faculty recruiting committee, section leaders and faculty members who are donating their time for the 2019 Trial Advocacy Program, Aug. 12 – 14.
The Trial Advocacy Program gives third-year LSU Law students a “learn by doing” education that simulates actual trial skills. Students learn and practice under the experienced eyes of the select seminar faculty. Students role play and receive critiques from some of the nation’s leading experts in courtroom practices during the intensive three-day program.
The program follows the methods pioneered by the National Institute for Trial Advocacy and includes role playing, critique, videotaping of performances, videotape critique, lectures and demonstrations by the faculty. Students perform direct and cross examinations, argue motions, and conduct opening and closing remarks.
Thank you to the legal professionals from around the country who make this program possible:
