ABOTA’s Masters in Trial offers the opportunity to watch leading attorneys present a full civil trial, or in-depth portions of one, in a single day, complete with jury participation and deliberations. These demonstrations teach by example, providing practical insight into trial strategy, witness examination, and persuasive jury communication.


Designed for plaintiff and defense attorneys at every career stage, the program provides a roadmap for effective courtroom advocacy while advancing ABOTA’s commitment to excellence, civility, professionalism, and preserving the civil jury trial.
