About USLLS

Established in 2001, University School of Law and Legal Studies (USLLS) has since then emerged as a premier hub of legal education in India. USLLS has acquired the status of a distinct institution of legal education in an unparalleled setting of advanced research and multidisciplinary environment. The institution endeavours to equip the students with a sound sense of professionalism, backed by rigorous knowledge of law and a profound understanding of social issues. The Course structure is contemporary and practice oriented with a special focus on legal ethics. The school has been attracting students from all over India and also overseas. The law school, with a well-experienced and sincere regular faculty, conducts all the courses with professionalism and due value orientation.

USLLS envisages advancement of institutional expertise in the area of legal research and education by augmenting academic and professional excellence, developing critical and relentless engagement with legal theory and practice. The college promotes holistic development of the student wherein there is a balance between theory and practice.

The Law school is endowed with a well-equipped Cyber lab and a data centre with online databases and resources such as Manupatra, LexisNexis, SCCOnline and WestLaw India. There is a moot court hall with a seating capacity of over 150 persons and a seminar hall.

From Dean’s Desk

Established in 2001 at Delhi, Capital of India, amidst the tides of a springing new world order, the University School of Law and Legal Studies (USLLS) has noted a record development within one and a half decades producing well honed professionals performing equally well in the areas of litigation, corporate sector, cyber law and alternative dispute resolution. The USLLS is attracting students from all over the length and breadth of the country and abroad. They here have shown their ability to come up as leaders in advocacy skills, organization of lok adalats, seminars, conferences, moot court competitions, mock trials, quiz competitions and such other programmes. The research capabilities and communication skills of our students have been appreciated by the judges of the Supreme Court and High Courts during their internships with them. Their regular participation in international moot court/arbitration moot competitions abroad (at Hong Kong and Vienna) enriches them in their pursuits. Their working with our legal aid centre and social outreach prorammes and their association with the Delhi State Legal Services Authority has strengthened their will to work for the society and promotion of market with fine values.

Long back in 1958, the Setalvad Committee examining the status of legal education in India had observed that “the main purpose of university legal education seems hitherto, to have been not the teaching of law as a science or as a branch of learning, but mainly imparting the students a knowledge of certain principles and provisions of law to enable them to enter the legal profession”. The USLLS has taken a break from that approach and is setting standards with the spirit of contributing to the overall development of legal education and profession in the country.

We are sure that the ‘world of law’ will definitely find very fine and excellent of its members in our students.
