"Lawyers in Love" is the seventh album by American singer/songwriter Jackson Browne, released in 1983 (see 1983 in music).

The title song was a top-twenty pop hit for Browne, and was accompanied by one of his music videos.

The track "Downtown" was a Browne composition, and should not be confused with the Tony Hatch composition of the same name, "Downtown" (best remembered as a 1965 hit for Petula Clark). In Browne's song, however, he ad libs a line at the end to the melody of the Hatch/Clark "Downtown" at the close of the song.
