Appellate practice
Rehearse appellate oral argument against a simulated panel.
Upload your appellant and reply briefs — or your appellee brief — and argue the appeal out loud. The AI bench knows the standard of review, the record, and the one policy implication that could flip the panel.
What the bench will test
Standard of review
Deferential standards get deferential questions. The panel asks why the issue is preserved, what standard applies, and what you need to show to win under it.
Record limits
Appellate courts do not take new evidence. The bench will catch you when you drift from the record or cite facts that were never introduced.
Hypothetical extensions
Panels worry about the next case. The AI asks where your rule stops, what happens in the close cases, and whether your proposed rule swallows the exception.
Time discipline
Appellate argument is short. The bench memo shows how long you spent on each issue and whether you burned your reserve on the wrong question.
Built for appellate workflow
1. Upload both sides' briefs
Paste the appellant opening, appellee, and any reply. The system maps the issues, the relief, and the standard for each.
2. Argue as appellant or appellee
Pick your side and the bench leans into the questions that side actually faces. Argue affirmance, reversal, or a limited remand.
3. Review your presence on the podium
Optional camera recording lets you watch your pacing, eye contact, and note-checking. It stays local and deletes when you leave.
4. Get a scored bench memo
Issue-by-issue time allocation, responsiveness to questions, filler-word count, and the concessions you should have resisted.
Practice tool, not legal advice
Courtroom Coach is an argument-rehearsal tool for licensed attorneys and supervised legal professionals. It does not provide legal advice, legal opinions, or a legal service of any kind. It is not a lawyer, not a judge, and no attorney-client relationship is created by using it. Nothing generated here — questions from the simulated bench, scoring, or the bench memo — may be relied on as a statement of law, a prediction of any ruling, or a substitute for your own research and professional judgment.
