The Cardozo ADR Competition Honor Society achieved another win this weekend at the American Bar Association’s Regional Negotiation Competition with 2L Staff Editors Victoria Budhan and Noah Page, coached by 3L Senior Editor Alexandria Becker, taking first place in the final round, and advancing to nationals which will be held in Feb. 2022. The competition was hosted virtually by the Regent University School of Law.
A total of six team members competed at the event including 2L Staff Editors Maurice Elbaz, Carly Shapiro, and Steven Schwartz, as well as 3L Associate Editor Xinyi Shen. The team was supported during weeks of preparation by their dedicated coaches, 3L Senior Editors Alexandria Becker and Victoria Sadosky.
"Participating in the ABA Negotiation Competition was such a great opportunity to practice and improve my skills," said 2L student Budhan. "I learned a lot about different negotiation styles and methods while competing against other students this past weekend. I am excited to continue working with my amazing coach Alexandria Becker and teammate Noah Page and can’t wait to compete in February!"
Page said, "Having the opportunity to take part in the Regional ABA Negotiation Competition was a fantastic experience. Competing against law students from other schools exposed us to a variety of negotiation techniques, while allowing us to showcase the skills we have been practicing all semester. It was incredibly rewarding to perform so well, and a testament to the amazing ADR team we have here at Cardozo!"
