Mock Trial
(redirected from Trial Advocacy)

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.01 sec.

Mock trials are sometimes used as an Alternative Dispute Resolution tool, in which parties that are not inclined to negotiate may see how the merits of their respective cases stand when argued before neutral evaluators.
