Full-time Faculty

 

At Trinity Law School, we will equip you to seek and do justice. We seek to provide a high- quality legal education that fully integrates biblical principles and the Christian worldview with a deep, practical understanding of the law. At Trinity, you won't just learn how to think like a lawyer, you will learn how all law should be in accord with God's law. Your classes will discuss not only defending clients, but defending the faith.
