Joseph Henry Lumpkin American Inn of Court
Each year, a dozen outstanding
participants in the moot court and mock trial programs are selected for
membership in the Joseph Henry Lumpkin American Inn of Court. This prime learning
and networking opportunity is one of the most prestigious rewards offered
by UGA's superb advocacy program.
Participants interact with
Georgia Supreme Court justices, and federal judges, senior
partners from some of the region's finest firms and other distinguished
members of the legal community. Bar leaders demonstrate
trial techniques and engage in discussions about advocacy skills,
professionalism,
and ethics.
The
Lumpkin
Inn of Court, established
in 1987 and named for one of the law school's founders, is one of the
earliest American inns of court and is modeled after the famed English
inns of court. It was also the first Inn created in the state
of Georgia.
