Current Students

By keeping our classes small and encouraging students to communicate openly and often with their professors, our students know that the faculty and staff care about their success. Our rigorous academic program emphasizes both a deep understanding of the law and legal analysis and the accumulation of a broad range of skills necessary to successfully practice law.

Academic Excellence

The strength of our academic program is based on the faculty scholars who come to Faulkner Law from diverse backgrounds. Our faculty members have received degrees from some of the most acclaimed law schools in the nation, including Emory University, Cornell University, Howard University, University of Chicago, University of Texas, University of Virginia, University of Alabama, Tulane University, Indiana University, and many more. Outside the classroom, many of our professors engage in research and writing, while others work with one of our three clinical programs and volunteer their time with moot court or trial advocacy competitions and law review.
