Bonus: Life as a 1L
Producers Kevin Huffman and Lisa Gray check in with former Dillard students Amaya Ronczyk and Lajeanne Shelton. Amaya is currently a 1L at Harvard Law, and Lajeanne is a 1L at UC Hastings Law. They talk about their personal experiences as a first-year law student, along with giving some helpful advice for future students, going from an HBCU to a PWI, skills carried over from the Dillard Mock Trial team into their current courses, and some exciting news about this year’s Dillard case law.

Fantastic! Can’t get enough!
Every Tuesday I look forward to a new episode. I listen to quite a few legal-world podcasts, but this one has that “something” different about it in following folks that haven't become lawyers yet, but are well on their way, and you can hear their fire, their passion for what they’re doing just over the audio format. It’s great.
I find myself getting amped up when things go well for them, and sharing in their disappointment in some measure when things don’t work out the way they wanted. It’s very compelling storytelling, and I hope they’ll eventually go to a twice a week release schedule…maybe…in the future!

Mock Trial heaven
"As a 30 year practicing trial attorney and a coach of a high school mock trial team this is a great podcast. Although high school is not law school it really brings out the intensity and passion the people who do Mock Trial have. And some great tips for people who do it. I can’t wait for the rest of the episodes. Going to recommend it to my students and everybody I know involved in Mock Trial."

The exciting world of mock trial
Based on the trailer, I can’t wait to follow the ins and outs of young lawyers figuring out their way through their arguments. Always great to learn how it all works. And so happy to see Katie Phang as host. She is such a delight on NBC. Go, Class Action, go!!!
About Class Action
Class Action with Katie Phang is an immersive 12 part documentary podcast series about the next generation of lawyers, heard through the voices of law students competing in mock trial tournaments around the country.​
​
Producers spent a year following three law school teams and an undergraduate pre-law program. The series follows a natural narrative arc of the season.
Just like in athletics, there are intensive bootcamps and scrimmages, then high-stakes tournaments against other schools. The cases range from mob murders, arson and to civil rights law. And the action is fierce.
Class Action is a production of Sound Argument and iHeartMedia.
"What a powerful narrative you all have woven together. Thank you, again, for telling the story of these wonderful young people in such a powerful way." -- Adria Kimbrough, Dillard University Mock Trial coach
"This is a really great production that I encourage everyone to listen to no matter what. The stories being told by y’all are great and an amazing insight into what we do. Couldn’t be happier and honored to be in it!" -- Cole Davila, St. Mary's Law Trial Team
"I’ve always struggled to be able to explain to someone the true magic that is coming together as a mock team (coaches and competitors). It’s hard to capture the joy and the heartbreak and why it all matters. I’m going to suggest all my students have their parents, spouses, etc. listen." --
Rhani Lott Choi. Education Director
