Additional Information:
Legal English is a course designed to introduce students to the American judicial and legislative systems. Its focus is the vocabulary and terminology of the U.S. legal system. In this class, students will improve their reading, speaking and listening skills by reading and analyzing various cases, as well as explore and discuss a wide range of current and historic legal issues. This course will start with a review of the history and origin of the US Constitution and the Bill of Rights and continue with topics including the role of the US Supreme court, civil procedure, tort and liability law, criminal law, corporate law, and international law. Other topics include intellectual property rights, current challenges facing the US legal system, and case law. Students will also study landmark cases and view and analyze videos of legal proceedings.
Important Note:
Legal English is not a law course and therefore students can expect their instructor to focus on legal language and know U.S. law in general terms, rather than in detail. Further because your instructor of this class is not a lawyer, you can expect to know more about legal matters than he does. However, you will greatly benefit from the discussions of the U.S. legal system and cases as points of comparison and as a springboard for the further development of your own legal career. Although Legal English is not an introductory law course, it is appropriate for those who plan to study law in the future.
