Notes:"Each chapter ... is broken into two sections: an English text written for Spanish-speaking lawyers and a Spanish text written for English-speaking lawyers. ... Although the Spanish and English texts contain similar material, each section is tailored to the needs of a reader who is coming from one legal tradition (either the common law or civil law) and trying to understand the other legal tradition. ... the first eight chapters of the book include a short summary of primary principles in mirror (identical) text." -- Page 6.
Includes bibliographical references and indexes.
Summary:"[This book] provides practitioners and students of law, in a variety of English- and Spanish-speaking countries, with the information and skills needed to successfully undertake competent comparative legal research and communicate with local counsel and clients in a second language. Written with the purpose of helping lawyers develop the practical skills essential for success in todays increasingly international legal market, this book aims to arm its readers with the tools needed to translate unfamiliar legal terms and contextualize the legal concepts and practices used in foreign legal systems." -- Publisher's website.
