The initial and organizational arrangements of the college were done by Prof.C.Rajaraman M.A.LL.B(Cantab) Bar-at-Law, then Director of legal studies in charge who was appointed by the Government as the Special Officer for the purpose.

Initially, the college was housed at the Old University Building on Alagarkoil Road, Tallakulam, Madurai -2. In July 1980, the college was shifted to the new Building at Dr. Thangaraj Road, K.K.Nagar, Madurai.

It is also approved by the Bar Council Of India and state government to run the 3 year and 5year Law courses.
