stanowić idealne narzędzie do doskonalenia praktycznej znajomości
języka angielskiego prawniczego, w szczególności w obszarach
prawa cywilnego, handlowego, administracyjnego i pracy. Zakresem

Książka zawiera uporządkowaną prezentację terminologii dotyczącej
tych dziedzin prawa i zestaw ćwiczeń ułożonych według
poszczególnych zagadnień. Glosariusze na końcu każdego rozdziału
ułatwiają poruszanie się w ramach omawianych pojęć, zaś
zamieszczone na końcu książki słowniczki polsko-angielski i
