Legal English is a professional language. This means that a good command of ordinary English does not automatically make a student proficient in legal English. A command of legal English is not just a desirable academic skill. It has become an absolute 'must' for today's legal professionals working in internationally orientated environments.
This book offers:
- vocabularies providing sets of legal terminology associated with the legal system, civil procedure, tort, contract law and company law;
- text putting the terms in the vocabularies into their legal context;
- case discussion questions in order to practice using the terminology;
- knowledge questions to ensure that the reader has understood the legal concepts.
Each section provides diagrams, basic concepts, examples and questions. With this practical approach, the student is quickly able to apply the terminology to legal practice.The Practical skills are intended for students studying law at a higher educational level.
