Coming February 11, 2012!
The third annual Washington D.C. Vis Practice Moot will occur on February 11, 2012 at DLA Piper's Washington D.C. office. Last year's event brought together over 60 students from 13 law schools and over 40 arbitrators and practitioners. The third annual D.C. moot aims to do the same. Thanks to the generosity of Hughes Hubbard & Reed and DLA Piper, there will be a complimentary breakfast and lunch during the moot and a reception immediately after. As space is limited, all schools are advised to register soon. Any questions should be directed to Jerald Hess, j.hess@dlapiper.com.
Registration is now closed. If you would like to be put on the wait list, please contact Jerald Hess at j.hess@dlapiper.com.
Details
- Format: The competition format will be similar to the actual Vis moot, with students arguing in both morning and afternoon rounds. The goal of the day is to give the students the maximum amount of opportunities to argue and to receive feedback from experienced practitioners.
- Cost: None
- Interested in arbitrating? Vis alumni and other practicing attorneys that are interested in serving as an arbitrator should email j.hess@dlapiper.com.
