George Law (born 13 December 1885 in Arbroath) was a Scottish football player.

He began his career at local club Arbroath and moved to Rangers in 1907. Law became a favourite among the Ibrox fans for his determined, hard-tackling defensive style. Playing during the William Wilton era, he won a Scottish league championship medal in 1911, the 1911 Glasgow Cup, and two Glasgow Merchants Charity Cups. However, he never won a Scottish Cup, but did play in the abandoned Scottish Cup Final of 1909.

Law left Rangers and moved to Leeds City in 1912. He retired after seven season in Yorkshire. After retirement from football, he went into the engineering business.
