See Trial Boom in Action
Features List
Realistic, First-Person-View
See all the action from the eyes of an attorney in the heat of trial. Exam witnesses in the well, object to opposing counsel's questions, and win the jury over by mastering the rules of evidence.
For every question and answer, a real human will be speaking. No more having to read tiny text on a screen without audio. Hear the voices of real advocates!
Trillions of Variations
Each witness has over 500 randomly programmed question and answer variants. The patent-pending algorithms powering the Trial Boom simulator guarantee that each user will see several incorrect variants during an examination. Remember, to earn points and achieve a high score and to move onto the next examination, you must object quickly and accurately.
Comprehensive F.R.E. Materials & Explanations
Trial Boom's Evidence Manual provides hundreds of pages of comprehensive educational materials, accessible inside the Trial Boom application. For every single possible objection in Trial Boom, we provide detailed summaries, examples, the rule language itself, and relevant case law that is continuously updated.
Sidebar Feature
Trial Boom's Sidebar feature provides users pinpoint analyses and explanations for the majority of questions and answers in any given exam. Not only do you have access to a comprehensive database of F.R.E. material, but you also have access to individually tailored explanations. To find out why a certain objection was "Sustained" or "Overruled," check the Sidebar!
Pick Your Side
In criminal cases, play as the Prosecution and represent the people, as you bring the suspect to justice. Or play as the Defense and vigorously defend your client by demonstrating reasonable doubt.
In civil cases, represent the Plaintiff and fight for the rights of the "little guy" against the powerful. Or choose to represent the Defendant and dismantle the other side's case to ensure that your client is not unjustly punished.
Examine Witnesses and Object to Opposing Counsel
Examining View - Examine witnesses in the well, as you would in a real trial. Direct examine your witnesses, and fiercely cross-examine opposing counsel's.
Objecting View - Object to opposing counsel's questions and opposing witness answers. When you hear a bad question or answer, get up and object!
Co-Counsel to the Rescue
If you object when you shouldn't have or select the wrong evidentiary rule, fear not! Co-Counsel will help you out. Co-Counsel will not only chime in and give you the right evidentiary basis (or tell you it's actually a proper question or answer), but he will also point you to the Sidebar, where you will find detailed, comprehensive legal explanations tailored to individual questions and answers.
Earn Ethics CLE
We just released Ethics Boom – an interactive Ethics Q&A CLE course with Judge Davis. Play through 6 different modules that cover a variety of different rules of professional conduct. To find out why a certain answer is right or wrong, check the Sidebar for a detailed explanation that covers the relevant rules of professional conduct specific to your jurisdiction. Ethics Boom is currently pending accreditation for Ethics CLE in 11 jurisdictions. We will continue to provide updates on the status of our CLE accreditation across the country.
Coming Soon!
The Trial Boom team is constantly working hard to bring you a greater variety of legal content. In the future, you can expect to see more cases (both criminal and civil) and witnesses, including topic-specific experts (e.g., construction defect, economists, medical professionals, etc.). We are also working on making Trial Boom mobile friendly, so you can play Trial Boom on your phone or tablet. To continue improving the realism and interactivity of Trial Boom, we ultimately plan to integrate VR technology. Stay Tuned!
We're excited about Trial Boom!
