Customer Reviews

Great working tool5
I am a legal interpreter in South America and find this dictionary to be an excellent working tool oriented to Latinamerican law professionals. Contains definitions not found in other legal dictionaries.

Fairly comprehensive4
This rather small tome is very helpful when translating legal documents bi-directionally. I use it in my profession and whilst it is far from complete, in conjuction with the Collins Unabridged English/Spanish dictionary, I am able to clear up most any question.

A great tool5
This dictionary is a great start for studying and learning legal translation or interpretation in Spanish and English. Sure, it is not comprehensive, but that is because it is compact enough to carry anywhere you go. For its size and price, you couldn't find a better dictionary. I have seen books for times this size that don't have as good information as this one.
