Our History
Lincoln has been disrupting the legal education landscape since 1919.
Lincoln was founded in 1919 to provide educational opportunities for veterans returning from World War I. Since then, we’ve prided ourselves in catering to students with full-time jobs who wouldn’t otherwise be able to attend law school.
Since 1919, Lincoln has had the honor of graduating judges, government officials, corporate attorneys, and successful business persons.
Formerly known as Lincoln University, Lincoln split into two separate institutions, including Lincoln Law School of San Jose, in 1993. Following the split, we have proudly operated as an independent non-profit organization for nearly 30 years.
In 2013, Lincoln became the only school in Northern California approved by the United States Patent and Trademark Office to operate both a Patent and a Trademark Clinic. These clinics assist the public in filing and prosecuting the patents and trademarks which become the foundation for local small businesses.
