Our mission is to help Aggies build confidence, analytical reasoning, and lifelong skills through competition, collaboration, and community.
Texas A&M Moot Court helps students develop advocacy, legal research, and public speaking skills. Members learn to analyze legal cases, write appellate briefs, and present arguments in a supportive, team-based environment.
Moot Court offers two main types of competition: Brief Writing and Oral Advocacy. Both are open to all members, and you can choose to participate in either or both. Competitions are a great way to apply your skills, receive feedback, and represent Texas A&M at the national level.
Season: May to December
Write persuasive appellate briefs on complex legal topics. This is an excellent way to build a portfolio of strong writing samples for law school or future careers. Members can always practice brief writing in a low-stakes environment if they prefer, with plenty of support and feedback from the team.
Season: May to February
Work in pairs to research real legal issues and deliver oral arguments before panels of judges. You’ll practice public speaking, legal analysis, and get feedback from experienced judges and attorneys. Competitions are a great way to test your skills, meet students from across the country, and represent Texas A&M on a national stage. Members can always practice oral advocacy in a low-stakes environment if they prefer.
Texas A&M Moot Court is more than just a team—it's a place to build lifelong friendships, find like-minded people, and grow your skills in a judgment-free environment.
