About Us - Amicus Institute of Law

Our History

Founded with a vision to revolutionize legal education in Nepal, Amicus Institute of Law emerged from the collective dream of experienced legal professionals, educators, and advocates who recognized the need for a comprehensive, practical approach to legal training.

Established in Kathmandu, the heart of Nepal's judicial system, our institute was built on the principle that future lawyers need more than theoretical knowledge—they need practical skills, ethical grounding, and a deep understanding of both Nepali and international legal systems.

Since our inception, we have been committed to maintaining the highest standards of academic excellence while ensuring our programs remain accessible to talented students from all backgrounds. Our curriculum has been carefully designed in consultation with Supreme Court advocates, legal scholars, and bar council members to ensure it meets the evolving needs of Nepal's legal profession.

Our extensive law library serves as the foundation of legal research

Message from the Principal

"Dear aspiring legal professionals,

It is with great pride and enthusiasm that I welcome you to Amicus Institute of Law. As we embark on this journey together, I want to emphasize that legal education is not merely about memorizing statutes and case laws—it is about developing a mindset that seeks justice, upholds ethical standards, and serves society with integrity.

At Amicus, we have built a learning environment that combines rigorous academic training with practical legal skills. Our faculty comprises experienced advocates, judges, and legal scholars who bring real-world insights into the classroom. Our moot court sessions, legal aid clinics, and internship programs ensure that you graduate not just with a degree, but with the confidence and competence to excel in your legal career.

The legal profession in Nepal is at a transformative juncture. As our democracy matures and our legal framework evolves, there is an increasing demand for lawyers who are not only technically proficient but also socially conscious and ethically grounded. I encourage each of you to embrace this responsibility and strive to become advocates of justice in the truest sense.

I look forward to welcoming you to our institute and supporting you in your journey toward becoming exceptional legal professionals who will contribute meaningfully to Nepal's legal system and society at large."
