"Bellarmine Mock Trial taught me the proper foundations of litigation. As a young attorney, Mock Trial gave me the tools to go into courtrooms with confidence. The techniques and instructions taught to me by Jim and Ruth have been the cornerstone of my trial practice. I often hear other lawyers say that law school did not teach them anything about being a lawyer. I am often torn about the validity of that statement. However, I have no reservations telling college students interested in a legal career that Mock Trial taught me volumes about being a trial attorney."
