Introduction to International Legal English is an intermediate level course for law students or newly-qualified lawyers who need to use English in their legal work or studies. Suitable for classroom use or self-study, the course prepares learners for using English in a commercial law environment, focusing on a variety of legal topics including company law, litigation and arbitration, criminal law and comparative law.
Using authentic legal texts and case studies supplied by TransLegal®, Europe’s leading firm of lawyer-linguists, the course develops learners’ understanding of the law while simultaneously consolidating their language skills. Featuring both academic and professional contexts, Introduction to International Legal English develops the four key skills of reading, writing, listening and speaking.
The accompanying Teacher's Book provides full support for teachers without a law background and includes guidance on all the exercises as well as a range of activities to bring a more communicative dimension to the course.
With an author team comprising lawyers from the US, Britain and Canada and ELT specialists, teachers and students can be confident that the language and content is authentic and practical.
Introduction to International Legal English is suitable for learners who may not have extensive knowledge of the law. It takes learners up to the point where they can begin using the International Legal English coursebook and start preparation for the Cambridge ILEC examination.
