Helpful and convenient legal terms at our fingertips
Highly recommend
This surpassed my expectations. It's laminated and has all the terminology especially if you are just getting started in law or government.
Paralegal student here, I love it
I am not an attorney, but I find this quick study guide useful. For those of us that deal with forensics and thus, by default, the law, it's almost a must have. Beats packing around Black's Law Dictionary, unless you need something to stand on in order to reach the top shelf. I find it very handy to use whenever I forget the meaning of some esoteric Latin legal phrase and do not wish (or simply cannot access) a legal/Latin dictionary. True, there are various simplistic definitions included with the tough ones, but they don't take up much room. You will like it if you wish to spare your memory being all cluttered up with legalese, and instead making room for more important things - like the English vocabulary.
awesome guide for quick reference study !
I recently bought this for a friend who would start her 1st yr of law school in late august. So I’m speaking on her behalf and what she has told me. She’s said that this has been a life saver, she takes it with her anytime she goes to class and to study. She mentioned that it takes her longer than she’d like to read through text material and brief cases b/c she’s not use to legal and political jargon yet. But she’s said that this has helped cut down so much time b/c she can easily reference common words and terminology quickly. I’d say this probably helps with quick memory of these terms as well from using is so much. I’d recommend this for 1st yr law students as an easy handy resource, it would make a great great gift as well. Also I’ll add, she mentioned every time she takes it out during class her classmates always ask where she got it from. It makes me so happy to hear that this gift has been so helpful!
very useful
