The American College of Trial Lawyers, founded in 1950, is composed of
the best of the trial bar from the United States and Canada. Fellowship
in the College is extended by invitation only, after careful investigation, to those
experienced trial lawyers who have mastered the art of advocacy and those
whose professional careers have been marked by the highest standards of
ethical conduct, professionalism, civility and collegiality. Lawyers must have a
minimum of 15 years’ experience before they can be considered for Fellowship.
Membership in the College cannot exceed 1% of the total lawyer population
of any state or province. Fellows are carefully selected from among those who
represent plaintiffs and those who represent defendants in civil cases; those
who prosecute and those who defend persons accused of crime. The College
is thus able to speak with a balanced voice on important issues affecting
the administration of justice. The College strives to improve and elevate the
standards of trial practice, the administration of justice and the ethics of the trial
profession.
