About Indian Law Society



The Indian Law Society is a not-for-profit, Public Charitable Trust and a registered society. Indian Law Society was established in 1923. Indian Law Society chose the path of “Legal Education” to achieve its mission. Its watchword is aptly described in the following words:


“धर्मे सर्वं प्रतिष्ठितम् ।”


Dharme Sarvam Pratisthitam
Everything is centered in Law

The Indian Law Society (ILS) aims to promote legal education by establishing law colleges across the country. Additionally, the Society seeks to create specialized centres that provide advanced knowledge in various fields of law, allied disciplines, and social sciences, thereby enhancing legal literacy.

One such centre, the Indian Law Society’s Centre for Arbitration (ILSCA), was announced on December 3, 2016, by the Governing Council of the Indian Law Society. ILSCA was established to address the growing need for alternative dispute resolution (ADR) methods, by offering essential services, facilities, and infrastructure to the disputing parties seeking alternatives to traditional court litigation.
