A course that focuses on legal problems in daily life that will extend knowledge of the law and improve English skills

This course focuses on legal English using actual examples of legal problems that have occurred in daily life. Each unit sets out a concrete legal problem, and students increase their legal knowledge and English ability by working out possible solutions. Spread over six pages, each unit develops the four skills through a vocabulary check, setting out the problem, grammar, dialogue for listening comprehension, composition, discussion and a column to study aspects of legal knowledge. The stories are all eventually wrapped up, and the teacher’s manual gives detailed explanations. Practicing lawyers assisted in the preparation of the text.
