The Department of Law at Freie Universität Berlin has one of the best equipped specialist libraries in the Federal Republic of Germany, which is also valued and used by many law students from other law faculties. In addition to the specialist library (including parent-child rooms), the department has three large lecture halls and numerous seminar rooms, a cafeteria and a student cafe (Cafe Tatort).

The department buildings are framed by a green park landscape in the immediate vicinity (three minutes by foot) to the Henry Ford Building with the main lecture hall of the university, the central university library and a canteen. The campus can be reached via the nearby underground station "Freie Universität / Thielplatz" with the U3, which goes via Steglitz, Schöneberg, Kreuzberg, Neukölln to Friedrichshain.
