Teams of 2-4 university students compete in a series of competition rounds.
Competing teams represent two sides of a dispute, with members assuming the roles of Client and Counsel.
A qualified professional mediates the dispute, whilst distinguished judges assess how well the teams have advanced their interests towards a settlement.
