Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

Based on "The Translex 1000 – The Quintessential Anglo-American Legal Terms", you will be introduced to the most practically relevant and interesting terminology and concepts of the Anglo-American legal systems in 12 selected fields of law. "IAALE" offers an accessible and insightful first step into the world of Legal English and serves as an ideal (but not required) preparation for the more advanced "Anglo-American Legal English" courses I-VI.
