Located at the intersection of Hillsborough and Dawson streets, the new Campbell Law School building is a cutting-edge, student focused facility just blocks away from the legal and business heart of North Carolina. Before Campbell Law’s move, the city of Raleigh was the largest state capital in the country to not have a law school within its city limits.

The Law School boasts 13 technologically advanced classrooms and three contemporary courtrooms to foster learning, thought and debate. A large auditorium will serve students and feature important guest speakers; the spacious law library provides ample workspace, research materials and group study rooms; and a dedicated attorney resource room will welcome the area's legal professionals and Campbell Law alumni who need a place to work during trips to Raleigh.
