The Trial Advocacy and Dispute Resolution (TADR) program at UIC Law is honored to have practitioners and judges who invest their time and commitment into expanding the advocacy skills for our students.

Wilson Elser, a defense litigation firm in Chicago, co-hosted and sponsored the program's Trial By Fire and Negotiation Classic Competition this past weekend at the law school, seeing it as a great opportunity to provide students with exposure to civil litigation.

This competition is especially important to the TADR program because it helps finalize the teams who will represent UIC Law in external competitions in the upcoming season.

Day Two of R.A.I.S.E. continued with a timely conversation on Current Legal Issues, led by UIC Law Professors Claire Johnson Raba and Christopher Muhawe.

Students explored recent court cases and rulings, discussed their broader impact, and considered how legal decisions can shape the lives of individuals and communities.

Through conversations like these, R.A.I.S.E. gives students an inside look at how the law evolves and what it means to engage thoughtfully with the issues shaping our legal system today.

Students a part of the Rising Attorneys Inclusive Summer Experience (R.A.I.S.E.) pre-law program at UIC Law explored different techniques to help them learn and think like a lawyer, including an introduction into courtroom advocacy and the trial process.

Those valuable skills were put to the test in a mock trial in which students were broken into teams, prosecution and defense, and argued a case in front of real-life justices.

Special thank you to alumnus and Illinois Appellate Court Justice Jesse G. Reyes (JD '82) and Illinois Appellate Court Justice David Navarro for continuously helping our R.A.I.S.E. students understand and appreciate the art and practice of advocacy.

UIC Law hosted day 1 of its 4th annual Rising Attorneys Inclusive Summer Experience (R.A.I.S.E.) event at the law school.

Over 60 students representing UIC, UI Springfield, and other public universities in Chicago participated in hands-on, simulated trial advocacy training with UIC Law students and alumni, heard insights from current students on what it takes to be successful in law school, met professors and sat in on a mock law class, and had ample opportunities to network and connect with the UIC Law community.
