Mooting & Competitions

The Law School, in co-operation with student partners, has re-designed its competition activities in order to encourage participation and give each student an excellent experience of advocacy. The mooting programme runs on three levels – internal, national and international, and is organised by the Director of Mooting, Adam Nicholls, in collaboration with students from a variety of Law Societies.

“Mooting gives students the rare opportunity to step into the shoes of an advocate at an early stage of their careers. It sharpens analytical thinking, hones oral and written advocacy, and builds confidence in applying case law and legal principles to real world scenarios. Beyond the courtroom skills, it instils responsibility, teamwork, and the professional discipline essential for success in so many fields.” Adam Nicholls, Director of Mooting, Negotiating and Client Interviewing

The Law School’s mooting, negotiation and client interviewing programme and competitions are led by Adam Nicholls. Find out more here.
