Law is a profession that requires the ability to read critically,
write well, synthesize sources from research, and speak concisely
and clearly. "American Legal English "was developed to help
non-native speakers improve their ability to understand and
communicate in English with their legal counterparts around the
world. The text is an introduction to basic legal information and
the U.S. legal system that addresses the major areas of law and
provides actual cases and statutes so that students can become
familiar with legal syntax and legal vocabulary. Each chapter

culture. An audio CD (978-0-472-00325-9) is available for use in
conjunction with this textbook.
