San Francisco Law School is a private, non-profit law school in San Francisco, California. Founded in 1909, the law school became non-profit in 1941 and moved to its iconic location on Haight Street in 1968. The law school offers a three-year full-time program and a four-year part-time evening program leading to a Juris Doctor degree.

The Law School's alumni include late California Governor Edmund "Pat" Brown ('27) and former Lieutenant Governor of California, Leo T. McCarthy and Undersecretary of the United States Department of Energy Joseph F. Salgado. San Francisco Law School alumni includes many of the first women to be appointed to the bench in the State, including the Hon. Dorothy von Beroldingen of the San Francisco Superior Court, Paula Kamena of Marin County Superior Court and Marilyn Pestarino Zecher of the Santa Clara County Superior Court.

In July 2010, the law school completed a merger to become a graduate school of Alliant International University. The law school retains its name, however relocated to the university's main San Francisco campus on Beach Street.

San Francisco Law School has been accredited by the Committee of Bar Examiners of the State Bar of California since 1937, but does not have or currently seek approval by the American Bar Association. In addition, through Alliant, San Francisco Law School is regionally accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges, thus allowing students to apply for federal assistance programs.

In 2014, San Diego Law School opened as a branch campus of San Francisco Law School and is located in the Walter Library on the Alliant San Diego campus at Scripps Ranch. San Diego Law School offers a four-year part-time evening program and is accredited by the Committee of Bar Examiners of the State of California.
