The Iranian Law and Legal Research Institute (Persian: پژوهشکده حقوق و قانون ایران), formerly Allameh Legal Encyclopedia Research Center (Persian: مرکز پژوهشی دانشنامه‌های حقوقی علامه), is a scientific and juridical research institute, composed of four groups: encyclopedia writing, legal theorization and intellectualism, studies on social impact of laws, and studies on "extra" laws. Operating under the license of the Ministry of Science, Research and Technology of Iran, this research institute is one of the first legal entities to be recognized as a knowledge-based company by the Vice-Presidency for Science and Technology of Iran.

Enjoying a large infrastructure for research on the Iranian law, the institute has done the most comprehensive legal research in Iran and has helped to reform the civil registration law of the state. Reviewing and analysis of bill drafts, guidelines and bylaws, as well as creating a framework for writing legal encyclopedias in more than 60 disciplines are among the activities of the institute.
