About

First-Ever Montana High School Mock Trial Program

State Competition

The State Bar of Montana is pleased to announce it will join the ranks of bar organizations around the country who help coordinate the state competitions for the National High School Mock Trial competition. Planning is underway for the first-ever statewide competition in Helena to select a team to participate in the national competition next Spring.

Create a Team

Any public or private high school or home school group may sponsor one or more mock trial teams. A team consists of six to nine students. Each team must have at least one faculty coach and one attorney coach.

Get Involved

This is an excellent opportunity for high school students from across the state and for volunteer lawyers interested in passing on their knowledge of trial work. If you are interested in becoming involved or helping support this effort financially please email
