Participating in the mock trial was the best preparation I could have asked for as a junior associate. Coming out of law school, I never had much interest in coaching or working with students. I remain quite surprised by just how much I love it and consider myself both fortunate and grateful to have been involved with it. It has made me a better lawyer and given me something priceless: an extended family of 200 or more current and former students.
