Loyola University Chicago School of Law's advocacy teams compete in approximately 30 competitions, including mock trial, moot court, and dispute resolution, throughout the academic year. Each spring, second-year law students compete by arguing an appeal before practicing attorneys and judges in the IntraSchool Moot Court Competition, which our entire law school community has the opportunity to observe . Additionally, Loyola annually hosts the Philip C. Jessup International Law Moot Court Midwest Regional and bi-annually hosts the International Academy of Dispute Resolution International Law School Mediation Tournament.
