The Northwestern School of Law of Lewis and Clark College (also known as Lewis & Clark Law School), is an American Bar Association-approved private law school in Portland, Oregon.

The law school received ABA approval in 1970 and joined the Association of American Law Schools (AALS) in 1973.

Lewis & Clark Law School offers the Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree, including a range of scholastic concentrations and legal certificate programs, as well as a Master of Laws (LLM) degree in environmental, natural resources, and energy law and an LLM degree in animal law].

Each class in the three-year J.D. program has approximately 180 students. The dean of Lewis & Clark Law School is Jennifer J. Johnson, Erskine Wood Sr. endowed Professor of Law. Dean Johnson is a noted securities law scholar and arbitration expert, as well as a member of the American Law Institute.

Lewis & Clark law students can complete their degrees on full-time or part-time schedules, take courses during the day or evening, and focus in a number of legal specialties. The institution has a well-regarded general law review and a range of nationally ranked specialty programs, including environmental law, public interest law, and the lawyering program. According to Lewis & Clark's 2015 ABA-required disclosures, 61.7% of the Class of 2015 obtained full-time, long-term, JD-required or JD-preferred employment nine months after graduation.

The law school grounds are adjacent to a forested natural area, replete with 14-miles of biking and jogging trails in Tryon Creek State Park. The Law School is 4-miles from downtown, in the Southern hills of Portland, west of the Willamette River, at the base of the undergraduate campus of Lewis & Clark College.
