English for Law

Knowledge of legal language and the ability to use it effectively are essential requirements for students who have chosen to study law. English for Law, a comprehensive course in English specially prepared for undergraduate students of law, aims to train students in both these aspects. Though the book has been designed for students of law, it would also be useful for legal professionals who wish to hone their language skills and improve their efficiency.
