Good to know
Who can volunteer or organize
- This form is for becoming a volunteer or organizer — not for signing up as an event participant
- Participants sign up separately through the sign-up form on each event page
- Legal professionals (lawyers, law students) usually give either a portion of an event or the whole event — it's up to you
- Every mock trial needs a case, and the case is written by legal professionals — we always need help with that
- Organizers are usually high school and university students; no law background required
- Event-day helpers take care of logistics, hosting, photography and social media
- Everything runs in English, and all roles are unpaid volunteer work
How much time it takes
Event-day helpers commit to a single event. Organizers meet regularly during the season, with the workload depending on the role you take on — we agree it together.
