About this product

Product Information

This dictionary has a basic vocabulary of 6000 main words with many words and expressions derived from them. All the words and expressions are defined in simple terms, and examples are given of how each word is used in context. The vocabulary covers all aspects of legal terminology from the courtroom to the solicitor's office. It includes prisons, the judicial system and ranks in the police force, as well the main terms of commercial, criminal, civil, international and property law. Differences between British and American usage are highlighted. The definitions are given in simple English, using only about 500 words in addition to the words already listed in the dictionary. This makes it useful for students whose knowledge of law is elementary or whose first language is not English. Latin and French terms are translated, and encyclopaedic comments are given to expand on the definitions. These cover various aspects of legal practice. The supplement section gives specimen documents, such as High Court injunctions, judgements, County Court claims, a divorce petition and a will.
