What is Legal English?

English is the most widely used language in the world. Legal English refers to the appropriate and accurate use of legal vocabulary and legal terms and phrases in specific legal situations, such as contract drafting, business, commercial transactions, and labor law. It serves to bridge the gap between general English used for everyday situations and English used for legal and business purposes.

Why Legal English?

Whilst Arabic is the main language governing the legal environment in Oman and the Middle East, English is the language used in most commercial and international transactions. Therefore, to be successful in the legal professional or business in the Middle East proficiency in Legal English is a must. In addition, bilingual legal and business professionals are highly sought after in the Middle East as they usually have a global mindset which is desirable to both employers and clients alike.

Who needs to take a Legal English course?

Legal English is essential for law students, law graduates, trainee lawyers, paralegals, legal secretaries, in-house lawyers, legal counsel, as well as professionals working in legal departments in the public and private sectors. Legal English is also a big advantage for people working in the business world, including the Banking sectors, the Audit profession, Risk and Compliance, Human Resource Management and Corporate Governance.
