The School of Law

The School of Law at Wake Forest University, which was established in 1894, has grown in prominence and is consistently ranked among the top law schools in the nation, currently ranked #25 in the overall U.

S. News & World Report Law School Rankings and #5 in Legal Writing.

The mission of Wake Forest Law is to advance the cause of justice by creating knowledge and educating students to meet the legal needs of the world with confidence, character, and creativity.

We instill in students a respect for the law, a devotion to the ideal of service, and a commitment to professional values.

We educate students from around the world in a richly diverse, equitable, and inclusive community.

The school offers seven clinics, including clinics focused on appellate advocacy, environmental law, criminal law, intellectual property, and veteran’s issues.

Students can also get involved in more than 30 student organizations, and three legal journals : the Wake Forest Law Review, the Journal of Business & Intellectual Property Law, and the Journal of Law and Policy.

The law school also offers a semester in Washington, D.C., as well as a summer study abroad programs in Venice and London.

Since 2017, Wake Forest Law has housed the North Carolina Business Court, joining only a select number of law schools in the nation that contain a working court.

The court provides an excellent forum for students to see an actual working court in action as the majority of the hearings are open to the public.

Wake Forest seeks to recruit and retain a diverse workforce while promoting an inclusive work environment committed to excellence in the spirit of Pro Humanitate.
