Ever wonder what it's like to take part in a trial? Introduce evidence? Question witnesses? In this course, students will participate in a mock trial. This introduction to law will include lessons on rules of evidence, cross examination, and courtroom decorum. Students will be a part of every aspect of the trial so come prepared to act as advocate, witness, and jury! Guest speakers from the Seattle legal community will also participate to give students a well-rounded understanding of the practice of law.
