What is a Legal English Course?
This type of course covers legal terminology, document drafting, legal text comprehension, and communication skills in English.
Legal English courses focus on developing language skills, although they are especially geared towards studying legal terminology in English and its Spanish equivalent. The grammatical structures of legal texts are also studied, covering the similarities and differences between the two legal systems. I explain more in the following video.

Contents of the LEGAL ENGLISH course: international contracts
Module 1: Introduction and Fundamentals
Explore the fundamental principles of international contract law and familiarize yourself with the basic English terminology used in international contracts. We will also learn the difference between Civil Law and Common Law.
Module 2: Features of English Legal Language
Legal Writing
Drafting legal documents in English is a crucial skill developed throughout these courses. This includes the preparation of legal documents, where students learn to write clearly, precisely, and in accordance with international legal standards. This module enables you to understand the specific features of legal English, including its formal structure, the use of legal terminology, and the characteristic use of doublets and triplets.
Module 3: English Contract Structures and Model Contracts
Understanding of legal documents
Understanding complex legal texts in English is another fundamental skill addressed in a Legal English course. Students practice reading and analyzing legal texts, enhancing their ability to interpret and apply the law in an international context. You will learn to identify and analyze the key sections of international contracts in English, using professional models and templates that guide you through drafting and reviewing. You will also learn how to draft and structure contracts, saving hours of work by using my professional templates.You will learn how to structure contractual clauses from scratch.
Module 4: False Friends in Legal English
You will avoid the most common critical errors caused by ‘false friends’ in Legal English—terms that appear similar to their Spanish equivalents but carry different meanings in legal contexts. We identify seemingly harmless words that can radically alter the parties’ liability in an international legal setting
Module 5: Plain Language in Contracts
You will discover what plain language is and how to apply it in contract drafting to make agreements clearer and more effective, without sacrificing legal precision. Position yourself as a lawyer who is up to date with current trends. Applying Plain English to draft clearer, more effective contracts is a highly valued skill in global law firms.
‘A well-drafted contract is your client’s best defense.’ Throughout these five modules, I share my own explanations and exclusive resources designed to simplify complex legal concepts. This is not just about grammar—it’s legal strategy expressed in English.
I designed this program based on my 15 years of experience teaching Legal English because I know what it feels like to face an international contract and realize that general English is simply not enough.
