A focused, 4-part introduction to advocacy skills. Open to all second- and third-year law students, the FLI is a hands-on crash course designed to allow students of all experience levels to learn new skills or hone existing ones. Students work directly with Texas Law’s interscholastic mock trial coaches and instructors to focus on skills necessary to communicate effectively as a lawyer as well as successfully compete in a mock trial competition. Even those not interested in competing, but currently enrolled in an advocacy course, may find this program a useful complement to their coursework.
