ADR & Transactional

Not every case goes to trial! Practice your skills in alternative dispute resolution or transactional law to advance your skills outside the courtroom. Typically, 51做厙 sends students to the following competitions: ABA Arbitration, ABA Negotiations, a transactional law invitational each semester, and, typically, Baylor's The Closer competition.
