A firm partner and I (mostly the firm partner) created a fictitious client and factual situation. At the retreat the associates were divided into four pitch teams. During the day they prepared a presentation for the fictitious client and in the evening they socialized with each other. In the morning of the second day each team made its presentation to a mock client team. Video was shot of each presentation. During lunch, I worked with the professional videographer to make clips of the parts of each presentation that were well done. Then, after lunch the entire group talked about the clips. It was great fun for me and I am confident the lawyers found the experience valuable. I practiced law for 37 years developing a national construction law practice representing some of the top highway and transportation construction contractors in the US.
