Legal English - Effective Communication

This Legal English course covers key legal concepts in Common Law, courts and litigation, the language of US corporations, Tax Law, Administrative Law, intellectual property and international contracts. We now also offer a section on the language of finance and banking. Finally, the course introduces the language of European Competition Law, an overview of Inheritance and Succession Law and the language of Employment Law.
Each module contains practical exercises, including writing, speaking, presentation and negotiation skills. The course includes sessions on proper usage and identifying common mistakes with examples from plain English.
The sessions are led by an ex-General Counsel of a large US company, a former international GC for a multinational entity and a partner of a London law firm. Accordingly, the emphasis is on practice-relevant material.
