Language on Trial will interest anyone who has had experience of the language of the law. In particular, it will be an invaluable aid for lawyers involved in drafting legal documents or wanting to communicate clearly with clients and colleagues.
Through clear examples and logical argument, the guide explores the background which has given legal language its distinctive character; discusses the need for plain English in the law; asks whether the law can survive without its traditional, grandiose style; and examines the practical implications of plain English in terms of cost and client relations.
The final chapter offers over 30 pages of guidance and practice in writing plain English, which will be of use to anyone whose job involves putting pen to paper.
