This is my first year being a lawyer in mock trial and I was assigned for the plaintiff opening!!! I hope to do well 💞

[@huww686]

How’d it go

[@sylphierose6103]

@@huww686 it went really well! They said I was a little too “strong and direct” with my opening and whole approach however we did pretty well in our districts tournaments so that was awesome :) Thank you for asking!

[@holden6104]

Really dry opening. I have to admit though, this is one of the best videos I've seen on KZbin with respect to the general breakdown of an opening. I learned from this.

Can u show more parts of a court case I’m in 8th grade and seek to become a civil rights/advocacy lawyer!

[@pc86914]

Akction Gamer Watch the O.J. case documentary on Netflix if you haven’t. Also, search here on KZbin for footage of the actual opening and closing arguments from that case. Some of the greatest lawyers of all time, should be pretty inspirational!

[@jayhope3010]

Just out of curiosity, how is it going? Do you still have the same goal?

[@jaishan183]

watch Ace Attorney

[@activated1138]

Hope it's working out for you buddy! Law student speaking here

[@sojirenosman3423]

It is very important to know legal skills

[@BasketBloxBros]

annoys me how hes keep on looking up and down from his paper, like can you just at least look up for 5 seconds, then go down??

0:07 I bet he’s Canadian! (There’s nothing wrong with that. It’s just a neutral inference).

[@ButterflyQueene07]

Is that all? I was expecting more than one step.

[@amitjoshi2454]

So you can read the opening statement

[@elizabethnyabuta6130]

It is advisable to memorize your opening statement

[@hibbs3180]
