Prepare and take your case to court! Grapple with ethical issues, craft oral arguments, question witnesses – all while orchestrating the ultimate outcome of the courtroom trial simulation.

Stanford Law School at Stanford University and LeadAmerica have collaborated to offer high school students the opportunity to experience firsthand one of the nation's most prestigious law schools.

The Law & Trial Conference will provide students with academic and career insights into the exciting field of law by allowing them to step into the roles of prosecution and defense legal teams to try a case in the courtroom. Endorsed by the American Mock Trial Association, the conference combines engaging faculty discussion, analysis of important case studies, real-world guest speakers and enriching off-campus field trips. The Law & Trial Conference is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
