Berkeley National Flash Trial Competition



National Flash Trial Competition banner / logo

Berkeley’s second annual National Flash Trial Competition was on September 7-10, 2023, where top law school trial advocates went head to head in a series of rounds, each with a unique case problem. The catch? Advocates did not prepare for the cases ahead of time. Instead, all teams were given the problem shortly before the round and quickly developed a theory and examination materials for the case. This one of a kind tournament pushed law students’ abilities to think on their feet and adapt each round.
