Negotiation Team Tryouts

September 254, 2018

Do you like negotiation? Do you want to improve your skills and have more opportunities for practice? Do you like ABA competitions and want a chance to travel and compete?

The Northwestern Law negotiation team tryouts will take place September 24th and 25th and we invite you to sign up. To be eligible for the team, you must have taken or be currently enrolled in a Northwestern Negotiations Course. Please note that the ABA limits participation to JD students and unfortunately does not allow LLM students to compete.

The top two teams will compete at the regional ABA Negotiation competition November 3-4, 2018 at Michigan State University College of Law in East Lansing, MI. The 1st place team from regionals, will compete at the national competition held in Chicago on February 8-9, 2019. Northwestern has historically done well in this competition and in 2016, we won the national championship.

If you are interested in trying out, you and your teammate must sign up with Sara Buffett in the Bluhm Legal Clinic, RB 858G, by September 20th at noon. When you sign up, you will receive a copy of the intramural competition problem/simulation as well as our team expectations guide.
