Loyola University New Orleans College of Law Trial Advocacy Program

Loyola University New Orleans College of Law Trial Advocacy Program A student-run, academic organization The Trial Advocacy Program’s purpose is to develop basic litigation skills that serve any area of legal practice.

Skills are honed in a “controlled clinic” environment using a hands-on teaching style. The Trial Advocacy Program focuses on learning by doing with practical instruction, demonstrations, feedback and critiques from alumni, practitioners and practicing professors used to direct student learning. Students have the opportunity to participate in competitions where they'll represent a “mock” client in

a full scale trial. The program teaches students the strategy of a trial and how to conduct themselves in a courtroom setting. Trial Advocacy teaches students how to speak persuasively, how to conduct direct and cross examinations, how to argue motions and how to prepare and present persuasive opening and closing arguments. Students are also taught how to impeach witnesses, tender experts and introduce evidence. Students learn to analyze facts and think on their feet while displaying a dynamic courtroom presentation. Trial Advocacy students have the opportunity to attend and compete in regional, state and national trial advocacy competitions. Trial Advocacy provides students with the foundation to successfully advocate, in the future, for real clients in the courtroom.
