An in-plane switching mode liquid crystal display device includes first and second substrates; a gate line and a data line arranged in a substantially horizontal and vertical direction, respectively, on the first substrate to define a pixel region; a switching device formed at a crossing of the gate line and the data line; a common line formed substantially parallel to the data line at a center of the pixel region; a pixel electrode line overlapping the common line; a plurality of common electrodes extended from the common line; pixel electrodes extended from the pixel electrode line, disposed substantially parallel to the common electrodes, wherein a lateral electric field is formed between the common electrodes and the pixel electrodes; and a liquid crystal layer formed between the first substrate and the second substrate.
