- In science, a law of nature or physical law is a statement that describes regular or patterned relationships among observable phenomena.
- Laws of logic and mathematics describe the nature of rational thought.
- Laws of economics and psychology describe the nature of human behavior and interaction.
- Many adages are popularly known as "laws"; such as Murphy's law.

- Items associated with the practice of law are often called "legal," such as "legal paper size."
