Suitable for classroom use or self-study, this course teaches language learners how to use English in a commercial law environment. The book focuses on a variety of legal topics including contracts, company formation, debtor-creditor relationships and intellectual property rights. Using authentic texts to present and practise legal language, the course develops the four key skills of reading, writing, listening and speaking. In addition, this course is ideal preparation for the new International Legal English Certificate (ILEC) and contains exam practice tasks, exam tips and a practice ILEC test supplied by ESOL. The accompanying Teacher's Book guides teachers through the exercises in the book and adds a whole new communicative dimension to the course.
