UNT Dallas College of Law is located in the heart of downtown Dallas, placing students steps away from law firms, courthouses, and city offices. The law school’s primary facilities—the historic Old City Hall and the Lee F. Jackson Building—combine architectural heritage with modern learning environments that reflect our mission to provide accessible, practice-ready legal education.

Making History, Again
The Old City Hall—built in 1914 and restored to preserve its neoclassical design—now serves as the academic home of UNT Dallas College of Law. Classrooms, the law library, and administrative offices are located within this building, which symbolizes both civic tradition and educational renewal.
The Lee F. Jackson Building, a few blocks away, expands the college’s footprint with additional classrooms, study spaces, and student services. Together, these locations form an urban campus that reflects Dallas’s legal, cultural, and civic life.
