Trial School is different from all other trial advocacy programs in that it features a unique Mixed Method Advocacy, or “MMA” approach. There are many great trial advocacy programs which currently teach trial skills.

Other programs fall into one of three basic categories.

Unique To The Plaintiff Side
The first are those programs that teach basic trial skills that apply equally to both plaintiff and defense attorneys. Some of these programs are incredible and effective; however, they do not teach any of the advanced methods that are unique to the plaintiff’s side. Trial School teaches only advanced methods for plaintiff lawyers.

Diverse Perspective/Approach
The second type of trial advocacy program teaches only a single perspective or approach to trying a plaintiff’s case. Some of these are great and their students have had phenomenal success using their methods. However, these often teach dramatically different approaches to some of the most fundamental parts of trial, from voir dire, to opening statements, to closing arguments, and none of these programs teach a unified curriculum which attempts to combine the best practices from all of the different schools of thought and various cutting-edge methods for trying cases.

Unified Curriculum
Finally, CLE trial advocacy programs frequently sponsored by various trial lawyer associations. While excellent, these programs tend to be a hodgepodge of instructions based upon whichever lawyers are chosen by the organization to speak at each particular program. 

Trial School is unique because it seeks to discover and teach a unified curriculum based upon a careful study of the various methods by today’s top trial lawyers.

The School has become a laboratory of collaboration between today’s top trial attorneys for developing best practices based on a study of all of the respective methods and schools of thought about how to most effectively try a case in an easily digestible format of live stream events and video on demand.
