How You Can Help TLC

Our Mission Statement
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The Trial Lawyers College is dedicated to training and educating lawyers and judges who are committed to the jury system and to representing and obtaining justice for individuals; the poor, the injured, the forgotten, the voiceless, the defenseless and the damned, and to protecting the rights of such people from corporate and government oppression. In all of its activities, the Trial Lawyers College will foster and nourish an open atmosphere of caring for people regardless of their race, age, creed, religion, national origin, physical abilities, gender or sexual orientation. We do not offer training for those lawyers who represent government, corporations or large business interests.

The Trial Lawyers College is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.




Would you like to be a better trial lawyer? Would you like to learn how to represent your clients as they deserve to be represented by you? You can, by attending a Trial Lawyers College Regional Seminar. Spending a weekend isn’t too much to ask because, in return, you will be started on your way to becoming the kind of lawyer you want to be and should become. Many of us can’t arrange our lives to spend 3 weeks in Wyoming at the Trial Lawyers College, but you can be started on the right path by attending a Regional Seminar instead. -- Paul Luvera, Seattle, WA

I have witnessed trial lawyers of all ages and levels of experience advance to a higher level of expertise in just one TLC seminar. The process can be magical and life changing as well as the beginning of a new learning curve in a lawyer’s career. My involvement in the Trial Lawyers College, starting at age 60, has also made me a much better lawyer and, according to my wife and friends, a better person. -- Bill Trine, Boulder, CO

I attended TLC at a point in my career- 16 years as a personal injury lawyer- where I was tired and unenthused, wondering if this was the best I had to offer my clients. The Trial Lawyers College was just the boost needed to renew my love for my clients and for my work. Not to mention the skills and tools it provided me to become a more effective advocate. I will never again approach a trial or talk to a jury with the sense of dread I had before TLC. It has greatly enhanced my success for my clients. Thank you one and all. -- Anne Valentine, Columbus, OH

The story is the centerpiece of your case. The Trial Lawyer’s College taught me how to discover and tell the story beyond anything I learned (didn’t learn) in law school and years (now 34) of trying both civil and criminal cases. -- Milton Grimes, Los Angeles, CA
