A group of practicing lawyers and judges in Northern California decided there was a need for an evening law school in the Northern California area. Cal Northern School of Law was formed in Chico so that Northern California residents can maintain their employment, be near their families and still study law.

The Faculty Advisory Committee has selected the faculty members for Cal Northern from the Court Systems of Butte, Yuba, Sutter and Shasta counties. These trial lawyers and judges bring practical instruction to students, keeping students up-to-date with changes in the legal world which surrounds them.

Practical experience is stressed at Cal Northern. During the first and second year programs students are required to take a series of foundational courses; the third and fourth years at Cal Northern will provide students with a wide range of electives to broaden their academic horizon and provide them with the ability to step into the courtroom and be advocates.

Our goal at Cal Northern is to provide a special law program, without frills or fanfare, but with dedicated instructors and motivated students.

The American College of Law, located in Anaheim, California was founded in 1971 as a private corporation to meet the growing demand for a legal education. The school’s student body is comprised of mature adults seeking to expand their education and occupational goals.

The program of American College of Law is especially designed to meet the needs of the part-time law student. These students by necessity, are required to devote a substantial portion of their time to the support of themselves and their families. A LEGAL EDUCATION has many useful applications outside the practice of law. Many students study law to enhance their current careers i.e. LEGAL SECRETARIES, PROBATION OFFICERS, INSURANCE AGENTS, REAL ESTATE PROFESSIONALS, DOCTORS, DENTISTS, and many others attend law school to utilize its many facited curricula to further goals in existing employment.

Like the studies of History, English Literature and other Liberal Arts Disciplines the study of law broadens knowledge to provide a rich background to those desiring knowledge. The faculty of the college are practicing attorneys who work daily with legal problems. This lends viability to classroom study. These instructors have been selected for their familiarity with the special problems of part-time students and have prepared their courses especially for them. Small classes assure students the personal attention from faculty and administration that increases the effectiveness of the time they spend in college. Academic Advising and tutoring are available when requested.

Back in 1996, a man had a dream. It had never been tried before. Why not start a law school? But a unique one. One for those men and women, in all walks of life, from all financial levels and backgrounds, of all ages and experiences, who had wished they could go to law school. People who, for a variety of reasons, including their work hours, their family commitments, their place of residence, their health or age, had never thought they could actually make their dreams of becoming a lawyer come true.

That man with a dream made his dream come true by starting California’s first Online law school. A school where people could complete their entire law school education Online, never needing to attend a single class in person. A school where the flexibility of the Internet allowed students to take their classes when they want and where they want, from the convenience of their own home, their office, or even from a hotel room while traveling on the road.

That school is Abraham Lincoln University School of Law. Abraham Lincoln University provides a legal education for those desiring to take their complete program Online, but it does not stop there. For those students in the Greater Los Angeles Area, Abraham Lincoln University also provides, if the student wishes, and at no extra charge, live classroom support sessions, where students can supplement their training. Other centers outside of the greater Los Angeles Area are coming soon. Professors, who are experienced in both the Online and the in-class environments, make the courses both interesting and productive.

Interaction in the classroom, where questions are answered and topics are summarized, is available Tuesday night, Wednesday night, Thursday night, and Saturday morning and afternoon. This is in addition to our Online program always available on the Internet.
