Absolute Legal English is a practical and stimulating course book for students of law and practising lawyers who wish to work in an international legal environment and need to extend their language skills. It is particularly useful for candidates preparing for the ILEC exam. Absolute Legal English consists of nine units which cover the main areas of international law: Intellectual property, Competition law, Employment law, Contract law, Real property law, Company law and Environmental law. Each unit gives practice in all four key language skills and all skills work is closely related to real working practice. At the end of each unit, there are additional exam-type tasks for each ILEC paper plus specific exam advice. Absolute Legal English can be used successfully both in class and for self-study.
