DETAILS ABOUT THE EVENT / OPPORTUNITY

The International Trial Advocacy Competition 3.0 focuses on enhancing trial advocacy skills through a simulated criminal court trial. Trial advocacy is a core component of clinical legal education and equips participants with practical litigation skills such as delivering opening and closing arguments, examining witnesses, legal research, and integrating courtroom strategies.

The competition is structured to simulate real court procedures within a short span of time, enabling participants to gain hands-on courtroom experience. The competition consists of multiple rounds including preliminary rounds, advocate-cum-researcher’s test, quarter-finals, semi-finals, and finals, with knock-out stages beyond the preliminary round.
