You might want to try the Tapping Reeve House and Law School in
Litchfield, Connecticut. If my memory serves me correctly it was the
first law school in the country and had famous (or infamous) graduates
such as Aaron Burr and John C. Calhoun.
I think this is their web site:

Subject: Law Office Resources Needed/Furnishings
Does anyone know of any good resources or contacts for historic law
offices
and/or the practice (reading) of law in the 19th century? I will,
specifically, need to develop a furnishings plan for one of our new
(reconstructed) sites in conjunction with some interpretive exhibit
panels.
I have already compiled a short list of other institutions and sites to
contact such as Lincoln-Herndon, Wheelock, John Louis Taylor, Hubbard &
Fry, A. Dallas Wait, Historic Halifax, etc.
Additional guidance and suggestions appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Jeremy T. Chrabascz, Curator of Furnishings
