Board of Advocates

College of Law Academics

A student argues her case in Mock Trial

The Board of Advocates at Belmont University College of Law is a great opportunity to get involved on campus, sharpen your practical legal skills, and form a sense of community with your law school peers. Our Board of Advocates is comprised of three types of teams: Moot Court, Mock Trial, and Transactional. Professor Amy Moore serves as the Director of Advocacy, coordinating all of the programs.
