Touro Law Center | Long Island, NY Law School
Be at the Center of a Dynamic Legal Landscape
Touro Law Center, located on Long Island, is adjacent to a state courthouse and federal courthouse, providing unique opportunities for teaching and learning. The work of the federal and state courts is integrated into the daily law school experience and students are in the courtroom from their first year of school. Students gain doctrinal knowledge and develop skills, professional values, and early practice opportunities through simulated and real lawyering experiences in our classrooms, clinics, and field placements.
If you’re looking at law schools in New York and would like to schedule a tour, visit a class, or communicate with a current Touro Law student, faculty member, or another member of the Touro Law alumni community, please contact our Admissions Office at admissions@tourolaw.edu or (631) 761-7010.
