Assas Law School (École de droit d'Assas) is the law school of the Paris-Panthéon-Assas University (Paris-II), a French public university, often described as the top law school of France.[1]

Assas is one of the successors to the Faculty of Law of Paris and is located in the 5th arrondissement on the Place du Panthéon. It offers a graduate degree and its College of Law offers an undergraduate degree. Most of its courses are taught in the same building as its historic predecessor the Faculty of Law of Paris.

Regarded as one of the leading law schools in France,[2][3][4][5][6][7] it is ranked first worldwide in "Non-English speaking Law Faculty" by QS World University Rankings,[2] and its programs are considered prestigious in French media.[8][9]
