About Tampa Law Center

The Tampa Law Center is located at:

1700 North Tampa Street
Tampa, Florida 33602


The Tampa Law Center (TLC) opened in 2004 and has been integral to Stetson Law’s flexible part-time program, known as Flex JD, ever since. Conveniently located in the Tampa Heights area of Downtown Tampa, TLC offers evening classes that allow working professionals to earn their JD in as little as four years.

Following a 1997 survey that revealed a growing demand for part-time professional education in the greater Tampa Bay region, Stetson sought to fill that void. Five years later, under then-Dean W. Gary Vause, Stetson purchased the land on which the law center now sits from the City of Tampa, creating a hub for legal activity in the area.  Today, the center also serves as a gathering place for alumni and the greater Tampa community.

In 2026, Stetson announced a partnership with Bromley Companies to advance a transformative mixed-use redevelopment of the Tampa Law Center.
