Materials
used in the course are drawn from a variety of legal and law-related
documents, including some that are used in the Orientation program.
The
main text for the Legal English program is Introduction
to Legal English, by Professor Mark Wojcik. Using a hands-on
approach, the author leads the reader through carefully created
exercises that develop the ability to understand and use American
legal terminology in plain English. The exercises draw upon topics
from all areas of U.S. law, and they emphasize the processes of
legal reasoning in a Common Law system.
