Master Legal English for Lawyers: English Writing, Grammar & Punctuation for Law. Includes Expert Legal Documents & Templates This book contains key grammar and language guidelines to help you significantly improve your legal communication and avoid issues. Since English is the language used by many lawyers worldwide, this book aims to help those whose first language is not English and native English speakers who would just like to improve their professional communication skills. We are not focusing on specialized legal vocabulary here, but instead, we are homing in on the language structures that tend to cause the most issues in real-world scenarios. We will also focus on practicing and perfecting the basic building blocks of clear, professional communication within a legal context to gain the confidence you deserve. You will learn how to write clear, direct, and well-polished sentences so that you make a good impression in writing from the start. About This Legal English Book Your writing is often the first and last impression you will leave in a professional interaction. While mastering it can open doors and make your path to success smoother, ignoring it can close doors and ruin potential opportunities for you. Your writing is too important to mess up when discussing legal and business matters. In the legal world, different levels of communication take place, each one requiring different styles and approaches. For example, drafting contracts does not require the same approach as writing an email or an opinion. This book will help you not only write more professionally by understanding the nuts and bolts of English within legal contexts, but it will also help you decide when and how to use each tool. "Know your context as well as your audience." Like everything in life, not all writing is created equal. The same piece of writing can be a game-changing asset or a major liability, depending on when, where, and how we deploy it. We must always pay attention to context. When you approach a piece of writing in a legal setting, the first thing to do is to decide exactly what you want from the exchange and what the context is. This is particularly important because you don't have the benefit of body language or facial expressions when you write. People also tend to forget verbal exchanges more readily, but the written word is powerful. "The pen is "mightier than the sword…" - Edward Bulwer-Lytton and people will judge you based on how you use your pen. Master Legal English for Lawyers: English Writing, Grammar & Punctuation for Law, provides a structured framework under which lawyers, law students, and other law professionals can significantly improve their knowledge of English to become more confident and effective writers. You will be taken through the language structures that tend to create the most problems in the real-world and encouraged to review them through highly targeted grammar exercises, which focus on developing, not only your grammar skills, but also your competence and confidence in international legal communication. The last section of this book, contains access to a large selection of legal templates to guide you through drafting contracts, letters, affidavits and many other documents. It will be an invaluable resource for your studies and career in the legal arena.
