President’s Welcome
This year mark’s the 24th anniversary of the University of Florida Trial Competition Team. Since its inception, the Trial Team has established itself as one of the top and most widely recognized in the country. As the Trial Team continues to train future advocates in the techniques of trial advocacy, our Team mission will continue to be representing the Levin College of Law with a spirit of excellence.

WE MAKE ARGUMENTS
Recently, U.S. News and World Report recognized the University of Florida Trial Team as one of the Top 15 Trial Advocacy Programs in the nation. This honor is the result of the encouragement of an outstanding administration, the support of dedicated professors and the help of committed alumni. Funding for the team and its competitions is provided by alumni, friends and law firms.
