Features: With the expansion of legal practice, the number of foreign-related services such as international trade, arbitration, and providing comprehensive legal environment evaluations for overseas clients has been increasing. As a result, the demand for English proficiency and other comprehensive qualities among Chinese lawyers has grown significantly. The "Easy Learning Series of Legal English" is positioned as a legal professional English textbook, but it avoids the common characteristics of general professional English materials—such as being overly burdensome, rigid, and dull. This book also avoids the typical drawbacks of professional English textbooks, which are often lengthy, monotonous, and unengaging. The selected texts cover relevant issues in contract law, including the formation of contracts, the validity of contracts, contract interpretation, contractual remedies, and liability for breach of contract. Additionally, the topics are diverse and short, allowing readers to study them in flexible, bite-sized increments. Each selected text not only explains the basic concepts and principles of contract law in English but also includes related legal quotes, jokes, and other engaging content. The lively and fun format makes the learning of professional English both easy and simple.
