A Message From Dean Belsky

Greetings and welcome to The University of Akron School of Law’s web site. As you explore the site, you will soon discover that Akron Law is indeed a “regional school of national impact.”

Akron Law features renowned programs in intellectual property, professional responsibility and trial advocacy, and is home to one of four Constitutional Law Centers in the United States, established by the U.S. Congress in 1986.

If you are a prospective or current student, then you have come to the right place. Our outstanding faculty and dedicated administration and staff are committed to making your law school experience as good as it can be. We are so selective that when you come here, we expect you to graduate. We consider our students to be “alums-in-waiting.”

Our Akron Law community consists of more than 6,000 distinguished alumni, 178 of whom are judges. We are proud to have an active and involved alumni association, with 10 chapters across the nation.

It’s an exciting time at Akron Law.

Welcome to our community, and enjoy your experience.

Best wishes,

Martin H. Belsky
