Trinity Law School
Championing a Biblical view of Human Law and Government
At its core, our community is shaped by our commitment to the Gospel – the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. We exist to serve Christ by championing a biblical view of human law and government through our students, graduates, faculty, and staff.
In 1980, a trio of Christian leaders – Dr. John Warwick Montgomery, Dr. Harold Lindsell, and Dr. Walter Martin – had a vision for an institution called the Simon Greenleaf School of Law. Their goal was the academic integration of law, human rights, and defense of the Christian faith. Eventually this school was renamed Simon Greenleaf University to reflect broader educational goals.
In 1997, SGU joined Trinity International University and was renamed Trinity Law School. Trinity’s broadly evangelical ethos includes many of the same emphases that accompanied the Law School’s original founding in 1980, including the integration of the Christian faith and other disciplines such as law and the humanities.
Trinity Law School is part of the Trinity International University family of schools. Trinity International University holds to the statement of faith of the Evangelical Free Church of America (adopted June 26, 2008). The Evangelical Free Church of America is an association of autonomous churches united around these theological convictions.
"Trinity alumni will go into the legal profession advocating for many and will have the opportunity to shape individual and religious freedoms in our country. Therefore, be encouraged in your work. Know that you are not only serving the body of Christ to each of our students but also shaping them and instilling in them the importance of their future work in furthering the Lord’s kingdom. I pray that you would be strengthened by the Lord in all that you are doing."

Student Testimonials
“I found God, not only through the values of Trinity Law School, but also through the way that law is being taught. There is a parallel to Scripture. After seeing the conduct of Christian attorneys and non-Christian attorneys, I realized what kind of man I want to be.”

"Trinity Law School’s biggest strength is its faculty and community. I was well supported by all the professors who provided feedback consistently. They supported me by providing tutors and open office hours to discuss the material while I was in the Flex Track Option."
