How does Bootcamp differ from a trial advocacy class?
Howrey Bootcamp uses the project-based “learn by doing” approach increasingly used in trial advocacy courses taught at law schools and training firms. However, unlike courses taught by one or two professors, Bootcamp candidates are challenged both by dozens of experienced trial lawyers who do this work everyday, and by their peers, who are top law students from across the country. Our candidates get immediate, substantive feedback from our lawyers and trial judges. And, unlike courses taught by private training firms, Bootcamp candidates learn from the same lawyers they’ll work with day in and day out if they join Howrey. The curricular scope at Bootcamp is also considerably broader than most trial advocacy courses, which typically don’t include depositions, pleadings and written discovery, or client interviews. Finally, and most importantly, Bootcamp offers a completely unique opportunity for students to define a successful trajectory for their lives and careers for years to come.
