About UNLV Mock Trial

The UNLV Mock Trial team develops future trial lawyers through public speaking, critical thinking, professional development, and networking. With more than 28 dedicated students and two volunteer attorneys, we bridge the gap between classroom learning and real-world advocacy. Our organization hosts social and outreach events that connect members with the Las Vegas legal community, fostering valuable relationships and expanding professional networks. 

Over the past year, our members have completed more than
500 hours of outreach, including hosting our Summer Workshop, participating in community outreach programs, and volunteering as judges. UNLV Mock Trial has made a significant impact not only on undergraduate students at UNLV but also on the broader community, and with your support, we hope to continue growing that impact.

This year marks an exciting milestone: for the first time in our program’s history, we have
three competitive travel teams. Each team is dedicated to developing trial advocacy skills, expanding legal knowledge, and proudly representing UNLV at tournaments across the west coast. As the largest UNLV Mock Trial program to date, we are seeking support to ensure our teams can travel and compete throughout the upcoming season.

Your contribution directly strengthens our members’ educational and professional journeys. Thank you for considering support for UNLV Mock Trial.

Why Donate to UNLV Mock Trial

Donating to the UNLV Mock Trial Team helps us continue expanding, training, and competing at higher levels. This will ensure that our members receive the best possible preparation for the world of trial advocacy. Your generosity directly supports our team by covering essential expenses such as travel and lodging during our various tournaments. This allows us to focus on our performance without financial barriers standing in our way.

Your support enables us to have easy access to printed case materials and high-quality demonstratives, which are critical tools for presenting compelling arguments in court. These resources not only help us refine our skills but also enhance our ability to compete at the highest level, compared to programs that are more funded. With your contributions, we can take on larger, well-established programs from across the country, gain national recognition, and showcase the incredible talent that Southern Nevada has to offer. Your donation plays a vital role in shaping the next generation of trial advocates, helping us with the skills, confidence, and experience necessary to excel in the legal field.
