University at Buffalo School of Law

The University at Buffalo School of Law -- the only law school in the State University of New York system — is situated on the flagship campus of a world-class research intensive public university, the largest in the northeastern United States. One of only a few law schools located on an international border, we offer a cross-border legal studies concentration as well as concentrations in advocacy, criminal law, family law, intellectual property and privacy law, international law, and sports law. Many of our nationally prominent faculty members have a Ph.D. in addition to their law degrees, which allow us to offer a wide range of interdisciplinary course options taught by experts. What makes us truly special is that a UB School of Law education is a collaborative initiative with the legal community.  Our students, faculty, staff, loyal employers, judges and our wide-ranging network of alumni are all deeply engaged with the law school community. They are mutually supportive of one another and directly involved and committed to the educational process. We share a distinct sense of place and pride.  That’s the hallmark of our law school.
