The University of Toronto Faculty of Law, officially the Henry N.R. Jackman Faculty of Law, is the law school of the University of Toronto. It is located on the university's St. George campus in downtown Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Originally founded in 1889, it is among the oldest law faculties in Canada. The school was reorganized in the early 1950s into a modern professional faculty, and its Juris Doctor degree replaced the Bachelor of Laws (LL.B.) in 2001. Originally named the University of Toronto Faculty of Law, the school was renamed after alumnus Henry N.R. Jackman in September 2025, following his CA$80 million donation to the school.
Alumni of the law school include two Canadian prime ministers, William Lyon Mackenzie King and Paul Martin; multiple justices of the Supreme Court of Canada, including Chief Justice Bora Laskin and Justice Rosalie Abella; and several provincial premiers, cabinet ministers, and senior judges. International leaders among its graduates include Eugenia Charles, prime minister of Dominica, and Noor Hassanali, president of Trinidad and Tobago. Other alumni novelist Guy Gavriel Kay, university president Ronald J. Daniels of Johns Hopkins University, and the current or past deans of leading global law schools: Stanford, Columbia, the University of Oxford, and Berkeley.
