Produktbeschreibung

The recent internationalization and globalization make it inevitable to communicate successfully on a global level. English is one of the most frequently used languages for this specific purpose. Being able to properly communicate in English is a major selection criterion, especially for young professionals lacking practical experience. Legal English plays a major role for communication and practicing in law firms globally. Offices involved in international jurisdictions are reliant on this language and its use affects the outcome of processes, lawsuits and even success rates. This publication examines the role of English Legalese in the legal context for law firms not only residing in an Anglophone area. In order to debate this essential question, the author explains the historical background and the differences between Standard English and English Legalese. The publication gives relevant reasons why applying this language is a very efficient process, yet the downsides of using a very specific language need to be considered. Management should be very aware of the importance and impact this language can have on the overall prosperity of a company. In this book: - Business English; - lawyer; - young professionals; - coaching; - organizational psychology; - adult education
