Overview
Founded in 2004 as part of Liberty University, the School of Law was established to provide rigorous legal education grounded in Christian principles and a commitment to religious liberty and constitutional law. It gained full ABA accreditation in 2010 and has since built a reputation for training attorneys who pursue careers in areas such as government, public interest law, and litigation, with particular strength in religious liberty and constitutional law advocacy. The school is closely tied to Liberty University's broader evangelical mission and has produced graduates active in conservative legal circles and faith-based legal organizations.
