The Law To Know

Module 11

Practice-area vocabulary: property, employment, family, intellectual property and crime

A lawyer in English-speaking practice uses a different set of words in each area of law. You cannot learn all of them, but you can learn the core words of the areas that you meet most, and the traps in each. This module gives you the vocabulary of five areas: property, employment, family, intellectual property and criminal law. It teaches words, not law, and the law in every area differs by country.
