Designed to train you in the art of litigation, the Trial Advocacy Honor Society of Widener Law teaches courtroom skills, etiquette, and confidence. As a member of the society, you will participate in the annual
Hugh B. Pearce Competition, the annual internal competition with students from the Delaware campus.
You will also have the opportunity to compete in external competitions throughout the year. If you compete, you prepare a case from start to finish, including the preparation of witnesses, opening statement, direct and cross-examinations, and closing arguments. After completing preparations, you experience the excitement of litigating your case against other students! Afterwards, knowledgeable legal professionals offer you valuable critiques. The Trial Advocacy Honor Society offers you practical experience and takes legal education beyond the classroom.
