All over the world, lawyers working in commercial law are short of time and are often
under great pressure to meet deadlines. Often, they are expected to carry out high value
and demanding work in English. Acquiring strong legal English skills with a good
knowledge of frequently-used commercial vocabulary, is therefore essential. When
this knowledge of commercial vocabulary is combined with more accurate grammar, it
means that legal drafting work, negotiations and every-day professional emails become
faster and of a higher quality. This is a huge benefit to any lawyer.
