STAC 2025

Each year, AAJ hosts the Student Trial Advocacy Competition (STAC), showcasing top future trial lawyers. This tournament is one of the premier trial advocacy competitions in the country. Regional tournaments are held across the country, and the two winners of each region then compete in the National Finals. The winning team members are awarded a scholarship and invited to join AAJ at its annual convention in July.

The 2025 regional tournaments will be held both virtually and in-person March 6-9. The National Finals will take place in person April 3-6.

Additional information about STAC 2025 is available here.

As a reminder, student team members must be AAJ law student members by January 17, 2025 in order to register for and participate in STAC 2025. You can join AAJ online. Detailed instructions for how to register are available here.
