Chicago Coalition for Law-Related Education (CCLRE) Citywide Mock Trial Competition

The Chicago Coalition for Law-Related Education (CCLRE) is seeking members to volunteer as lawyer coaches and lawyer evaluators for the Citywide Mock Trial Competition. Competition preparation begins in January 2020. Lawyer coaches work in a CPS high school to prepare the students for trial and lawyer evaluators work side-by-side with Circuit Court judges on the nights of competition to score the teams (evenings in March). 

The Competition is sponsored by the Circuit Court of Cook County, Office of Chief Judge Timothy C. Evans, in partnership with Sidley Austin LLP, The Chicago Bar Association, and the Chicago Board of Education.
