A Customer said Legal Dictionary?. I have a hardbound Black's but got this one to carry with me to class at law school. My advice is to get Black's paperback. I am very disappointed by the frequency with which I have to go to Black's after finding that the Collin dictionary does not have the term I need to find. It has usual terms like orphan, disrespect, and kill, but does not have many terms you'd think you'd find in a legal dictionary. Today it was "assumpsit". Who knows what it will be tomorrow.. Dictionary of Law As a paralegal student, I was fortunate enough to obtainCollins' Dictionary of Law which provided a thorough listing ofoft-used legal terms. I would encourage this purchase for anyone who either works in the legal profession or who would like to gain further understanding of the law. END
