Welcome

The Office of the General Counsel provides legal services to Yeshiva University and its affiliates. 

We have created this Web site to educate the Yeshiva University community about our office and its functions and operations, as well as to inform faculty, students and staff of legal developments and issues of importance impacting them and the University.

Please take a moment to become familiar with:

• Who we are
• When to call us
• Important University rules and procedures
• General legal issues
• Current legal news and information

We are available to facilitate and assist with the business needs of the University within the confines of the law and to ensure that the University is in compliance with its legal responsibilities and obligations.

Please contact us for assistance with legal matters affecting the University. We do not provide personal legal services to employees, students or members of the Yeshiva University community.
