Introduction to Legal English: An Introduction to Legal Terminology, Reasoning, and Writing in Plain English, 2nd Edition

Mark Wojcik

"What is so outstanding about Professor Wojcik's work -  for the term 'book' fails to do it justice -  is that it incorporates notions of U.S. law, reasoning, and writing by explaining these concepts in the context of U.S. language and culture."

Professor Toni M. Fine
Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law

"Professor Wojcik's book is a gem! It is a visual, hands-on comprehensive overview of the American legal system
and the English language used in that system."

Professor Kathryn L. Mercer
Case Western University School of Law

This acclaimed book, now in its second edition, breaks new ground in teaching legal English to law students and lawyers whose first language is not English.  Employing a hands-on, structured approach, the author leads the reader through carefully crafted exercises that develop the ability to understand and use Anglo-American legal terminology in both written and oral formats.
