From the annual Mock Trial program for high school students to our monthly Dial-A-Lawyer phone-in service, the MBA has many programs that allow lawyers and other legal professionals to use their skills and experience to help the citizens the commonwealth. Mock Trial The MBA's Mock Trial Program offers high school students the opportunity to participate and compete against other high school peers from all over the commonwealth. The members of each high school team act as attorneys and witnesses for the case. These students have the opportunity to argue for the prosecution or defense in hopes of obtaining the state championship.
