Legal Terminology and Usage: For Court Reporters and Paralegals

If learning legal terminology were as simple as memorizing words, all you would need is a dictionary. But, merely memorizing definitions takes inordinate time, hard work, and in the end, still teaches you little about comprehending and retaining this new language. If you understand the nature of the legal terms and how they equate to ordinary legal situations, you will learn the terminology in a faster and more engaging way, and most importantly retain that knowledge far longer.

With our Legal Terminology and Usage: For Court Reporters and Paralegals book, we have taken a different approach to help you master legal terminology. We provide strategies such as charts comparing words with confusing similarities, organizing words under common legal concepts, and including interesting supplementary material. These strategies make legal terminology come alive, ensuring that you learn and retain the knowledge for years to come.

Our goal is not for you to simply memorize the words for a test and forget them two days later. We want to give you the ability to study the words in proper context, allowing for deep and sustainable understanding of the terms even five years down the line. This book is designed to make learning more obtainable and create a platform for long-term recall for court reporters, paralegals, and anyone who wishes to understand legal terminology.
