Emory University Mock Trial

Emory University Mock Trial --ABOUT--

Emory's Ben Pius Mock Trial Team is a collegiate trial advocacy team. We try the case against other schools, competing for trophies and glory.

Each year we receive a case from the American Mock Trial Association and engage in trial simulations, filling both witness and attorney roles. Since it's founding over 10 years ago, Emory Mock Trial has consistently been one of the most competitive teams in the region and we strive to continue that legacy. In addition, members of the mock trial team learn invaluable skills and join a close network

of individuals who share a passion for law, arguing, and each other. Tryouts for the team are held every year at the beginning of September. All Emory undergraduates are encouraged to tryout and no prior experience is necessary.

~2021 MOCK TRIAL NATIONALS WRAP UP~

EMORY A AND EMORY B BROKE RECORDS YESTERDAY!!!

Emory A finished FOURTH at nationals with a record of 11-5-0! THIS IS THE BEST RECORD EMORY A HAS EVER HAD AT NATIONALS!!! Not to mention our DOUBLE All-American Riya Lakkaraju (who awarded as both an attorney AND a witness) and Carson Sanford, an all-American witness!!

This is Emory B’s second time ever going to nationals, and they finished 16th in their division, which again, is the BEST RECORD EMORY B HAS EVER SEEN!!! HUGE shoutouts to captains AND All-Americans Danielle Jacoby (All-American attorney!) and Max Friedman (All-American witness!)!!! We could not be prouder!

With 4 All-Americans, the best records of our program’s history, and the memories we’ve made over long zoom calls talking about bed bugs and how gross they are, this season has been one for the books, and it couldn’t have been done without our FABULOUS seniors. Lydia, Max, and Nick, we will miss you all so much. Thank you for doing this wonderfully weird year with us!!

This past weekend, Emory A and Emory B competed at the Opening Round Championship Series! Both teams did exceptionally well, and they will be 2 of 48 teams moving forward to Nationals! This is only the second time in our program's history that two teams have made it to the National Championship Tournament, and while that is exciting enough, we are also one of only eight programs who had more than one team qualify. We are incredibly excited, and we cannot wait to try out this new case next month!

Special shoutout to Riya Lakkaraju, Danielle Jacoby, and Max Friedman for their all-National attorney awards!!
