Campbell Law Finishes as Semifinalists at the National Civil Trial Competition and Quarterfinalists at the National Veterans Law Moot Court Competition.



Campbell Law third-year students Corey Goss, Liza Trent, and Adia McLaughlin, and second-year student Rachel Rogers, competed in the National Civil Trial Competition (NCTC) from November 3-6, 2022. NCTC is a national invitational tournament featuring 16 of the best advocacy programs in the country.  To receive an invitation to NCTC, law schools must demonstrate excellence in mock trial competitions and a commitment to training law students in litigation skills.  Corey and Adia flipped masterfully as lawyers between representing both sides of the case, often on the same day. The team skillfully defeated their opponents and later learned they advanced to the qualifying rounds. At NCTC, when you advance, the facts of the case are fundamentally altered the night before the next round. Our team quickly began to prepare to handle those changes.

Ultimately, our team placed as semifinalists. A fantastic showing for Campbell Law at a tremendously competitive competition. The team was coached by Director of Competitive Advocacy Tatiana Terry and Associate Dean of Students and Academic Affairs Dan Tilly.

On that same day, Campbell Law third-year students Charlie King and Rebecca Pierce competed in the National Veterans Law Moot Court Competition (NVLMCC) from November 5-6, 2022. NVLMCC is sponsored annually by the U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims (CAVC), the Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims Bar Association, and the George Washington University Law School (GW Law). The NVLMCC is the nation's premier moot court focusing on veterans law. Hosted close to Veterans Day each fall in Washington, DC, NVLMCC brings together teams of two students from around the country to argue cutting-edge veterans law issues before panels of distinguished practitioners and judges. The judges for the briefs and the oral arguments are drawn from the ranks of experienced veterans law practitioners.

Please join me in congratulating these outstanding student advocates and their coaches for their success, dedication, and hard work in representing Campbell Law. They each brought back some hardware to add to our trophy cases. It is a testament to the skill and dedication of our students that the Trial Advocacy Team and Appellate Advocacy Team can both dominate in the same weekend. A wonderful job indeed!

Best,
Director Terry
