Legal English offers a contemporary guide for students and practitioners alike who want to improve their language skills and build confidence in communicating effectively, from the classroom to the courtroom.
The second edition has been completely revised and updated to cover all aspects of language as used in a legal context where effective communication is crucial to both academic and professional success. It provides a wealth of advice, examples and practical exercises so you have the tools to:
- strengthen your written and oral communication skills
- learn proper referencing and citation rules for academic legal writing
- understand and use legal terminology correctly
- become familiar with language conventions in legal documents
- distinguish between the types of language appropriate to various settings
- develop vocabulary and technique for interviewing and advising, negotiation, and advocacy.
The text is supported by mylawchamber which offers additional resources for practising legal language skills including audio exercises for interviewing and negotiation.
Legal English will prepare you to engage confidently with the language of law in a world where every word counts and will ensure that you are poised for success.
