Atlanta Mediator 'Goes Back to Law School' With Mock Trial Team

Jim Stewart is a longtime member of the State Bar of Georgia. But each year, he says, he gets the opportunity to go back to law school, sort of.

Stewart is one of the mock-trial team coaches at Northview High School, the winner of this year's Georgia High School Mock Trial Program. The team practices long hours, each member going over their assigned case with the precision and dedication of a well-paid attorney, Stewart says. Stewart accompanies them on the journey and he says the experience is a benefit to him, both professionally and personally.
