Law Student Mentor Program
The Law Student Mentor Program is a key benefit of an AAJ Law Student Membership, offered due to the fact that AAJ recognizes how crucial it is for law students to develop a mentor relationship with an AAJ attorney member. These mentor relationships offer law students the opportunity to work closely with experienced AAJ attorney members in order to obtain career advice and gain a better understanding of what being a successful trial attorney requires.

Law School Chapters and Ambassador Program
AAJ student membership provides many benefits and opportunities, one of the newest benefits being the Ambassador Program. The AAJ Ambassador Program provides AAJ Student Chapter members with an opportunity to meet with an AAJ member who will explain what it is like to be a trial attorney and answer student questions. Ambassadors also work with students to create an active AAJ Student Chapter. AAJ Ambassadors generously volunteer their time and experience to help dispel misinformation about trial attorneys and mentor the next genertio of trial attorneys.
