The Nova Trial Association (NTA) is an honors co-curricular organization that strives to help students develop their litigation skills so that when they leave law school, they bring with them the tools necessary to be skillful and successful lawyers wherever they may practice. Joining NTA is the first step toward building a career long affiliation with not only one of the best organizations at NSU, but with the South Florida legal community. Throughout the year NTA assembles trial teams to compete in state wide and national mock trial competitions, including those hosted by the Florida Bar, the Florida Justice Association, the American Association for Justice, and the Texas Young Lawyers Association.
NTA also hosts at least two in-house competitions during the school year, including its annual regional closing argument competition which is open to competitors from other law schools in Florida. NTA provides not only its Members, but all students who aspire to become compelling litigators, with a variety of resources to develop their litigation skills - including guest speaker events with trial lawyers and judges, training sessions, and CLE seminars. By connecting students with exceptional trial lawyers in the community, and preparing them to compete against other schools, NTA continues to mold its members into young lawyers who are ready for the real world. |
