Cardozo School of Law in New York City
Bringing Law To Life

Cardozo School of Law is renowned for its rigorous academics, innovative programs, and commitment to social justice. Our distinguished faculty and dynamic curriculum prepare students for successful careers in a diverse range of legal fields. Our extensive clinical and field training placements are among the most robust in the nation, leveraging our New York City connections for hands-on opportunities. 

Join our network of over 16,000 successful alumni and learn from professors who are both distinguished scholars and passionate advocates. 

We are inspired by Supreme Court Justice Benjamin N. Cardozo, who said, “The final cause of law is the welfare of society.”

At Cardozo, we cultivate a welcoming and diverse community dedicated to the welfare of society. We understand that a rich law school environment includes a broad range of viewpoints and perspectives. We offer an educational curriculum that teaches students to understand a diverse array of views and teaches them to collaborate effectively with co-workers and clients of differing backgrounds.

This year's Cardozo Life spotlights our FAME Center. Hear from alumni and current students about the impact of our program and their experiences working in the fashion, arts, media & entertainment legal world.
