Attention students: take notes and negotiate at the Soldan Moot Court!
The FernUniversität in Hagen invites committed law students to apply for this year's Hans Soldan Moot Court. The competition, which will take place in Hanover from October 8th to 11th, 2025, offers a unique opportunity to gain practical experience in everyday legal life. The participants will take on the role of interest representatives and deal intensively with a fictitious court case in which they have to both write written submissions and take part in oral proceedings.
Preparation for the Moot Court involves several months of intensive training, including weekly online meetings and an in-person day in Hagen. The team is led by experienced coaches: Niklas Rademacher, Lara Trompeter, Laura Seidel and Renke Onken support the students. In addition, support is provided by the chair of Prof. Dr. Sebastian Kubis and the central area of the faculty.

Students from the 4th semester onwards who are particularly committed can contact us by email by April 30, 2025 soldiermoot apply. The application documents should contain a short CV, a letter of motivation and an overview of your academic achievements. Students in lower semesters with above-average performance are also warmly invited to submit their application.
An information evening, which will take place on April 8, 2025 at 7 p.m. via Zoom, will provide further insights into the course of the competition and the requirements. Successful participation in the Moot Court can be credited and opens up valuable experience and networking opportunities in the legal field for the participants.
The Hans Soldan Moot Court in detail
The Hans Soldan Moot Court has established itself as one of the most important simulations of German court proceedings. The aim of the competition is to give students an understanding of the practical aspects of legal professional law. The central tasks include drafting pleadings, representing the interests of clients and analyzing and assessing evidence.
Each year a specific case is presented, which serves to deepen the participants' knowledge of law and procedural practice. In this way, students not only learn what it means to act in court proceedings, but also can demonstrate their legal skills in a competitive setting.
With this initiative, the FernUniversität in Hagen has created a valuable offer for its students and thus contributes to the practice-oriented training of future lawyers.
