For law schools, advocacy programs & competition teams

Your team prepares the argument. Give them more chances to deliver it.

For moot court teams and advocacy programs worldwide: rehearse oral arguments aloud, respond to simulated questions from the bench, and turn structured feedback into a stronger next performance. More reps between coaching sessions. More purpose in every practice.

COMPETITION SPACE · PILOT ACCESS

Bring your case materials. Practice the performance.

Competition Space gives moot court and mock trial teams a focused environment to rehearse oral advocacy using authorized competition materials. Students get more opportunities to respond under pressure; coaches stay in charge of strategy, instruction, and the final judgment.

Preparing for an international moot or a local advocacy competition? We'll confirm your rules on AI use, jurisdiction, language, permitted materials, and supported practice format before recommending a team pilot.

Oral performance is our focus. Your team writes the briefs. Your coaches guide the preparation.

THE PAYOFFLive coaching time starts further ahead.

TrialSim is not the coach. It helps students arrive with more reps behind them and clearer questions in front of them.

The preparation gap is real. And programs feel it.

Knowing it is the starting line

Understanding an argument and delivering it under questioning are different skills. Students need opportunities to practice both preparation and performance.

What programs face

Faculty and coaches provide essential instruction and judgment. Supplemental practice gives students another place to rehearse before their next supervised session.

What students experience

Many law students graduate with limited opportunities to perform full examinations under real pressure. They may know what good advocacy looks like without having enough repetitions to make it instinctive.

The practice infrastructure for clinics, advocacy courses, and moot court teams.

The simulation

Students choose a module and practice oral advocacy with AI playing the relevant courtroom roles. Available skills include openings, direct, cross, objections, closings, and appellate argument.

The feedback

Structured feedback helps students reflect on strengths and opportunities for improvement. They can choose a focus for another attempt and bring questions back to their faculty or coach.

The measurement

PRESENCE provides a shared vocabulary for reflection across eight dimensions of oral advocacy. Use simulation feedback as a starting point for discussion alongside your program's rubric.

The institutional layer

Start with a defined group, practice goal, and evaluation period. Discuss available reporting, faculty access, and support with us before choosing the scope of a pilot.

What gets measured — and why it matters

The PRESENCE rubric was built from the competencies that experienced trial attorneys and clinical educators identify as the difference between adequate advocacy and exceptional advocacy.

P — Preparation

Command of the facts, the law, and the strategy before the first word is spoken.

R — Responsiveness

The ability to listen, adapt, and respond to what is actually happening rather than what was planned.

E — Execution

Technical proficiency in the mechanics of examination, objection, and argument.

S — Style

The voice, presence, and authority that make a jury or judge want to listen.

E — Emotional Intelligence

Reading the room — witness, jury, judge — and adjusting in real time.

N — Narrative Control

Keeping the story coherent under pressure, across every phase of trial.

C — Courtroom Awareness

Understanding the procedural and spatial dynamics of the courtroom as a performance environment.

E — Edge

The competitive instinct that presses an advantage, recovers from a setback, and never loses the thread.

Each dimension is scored independently, producing a profile — not a single number — that shows exactly where a student is developing and exactly where they need work.

How programs use TrialSim

01

As a clinical preparation tool

Choose an available scenario that fits the skill being taught. Have students rehearse before class, then discuss their choices and questions during supervision.

02

As between-session practice infrastructure

Give students a focused practice goal between live sessions. Use their reflections and available simulation feedback to make the next conversation more concrete.

03

As mock trial competition preparation

Add oral-performance repetitions around scheduled team rehearsals. Confirm the competition's AI rules and the fit of available scenarios before using TrialSim in preparation.

The professor's time becomes more strategic. TrialSim handles the repetitions. You handle the development.

Built for the legal profession's confidentiality standards

Student performance data is governed by clear access controls.
