Description:

This book is designed for law students who have followed their law studies in a language other than English.
Textbooks on English Law are too detailed for those who want to understand English legal terminology rather than English Law itself. Legal dictionaries are useful, but, as the words are ordered alphabetically, terms are treated in isolation.
This book offers:
Sets of legal terminology associated with the legal system, civil procedure, EU law, tort, contract law and company law;
Text putting the terms and vocabularies into their legal context;
Case discussion questions in order to practise using the terminology;
Knowledge questions to ensure that the reader has understood the legal concepts.
