The Client Counseling Competition simulates a law office consultation in which law students, acting as attorneys, are presented with a client matter. They conduct an interview with a person playing the role of the client and then explain how they would proceed further in the hypothetical situation. Each team, consisting of 2 attorneys and a client, will be competing to represent TMSL at the regional competition and for prize money.

Client Counseling Competition is November 9-12 , 2009.
