Description: "The Attorney's Pocket Dictionary explains Latin words and bewildering legal jargon found in most important documents. Deals with business, banking, insurance, property, taxation and so on. Like most people, you're probably hazy about the precise meaning and subtle implications of legal terms. Until you find out the hard way -- in the court room. Here's a much easier way to understand 'legalese'. Via The Attorney's Pocket Dictionary. America's first dictionary with annotations from the United States Uniform Code, this text has taken almost three years and as many as five exhaustive revisions to compile under the meticulous scrutiny of the Editorial Advisory Board of Law and Business Publications...The Attorney's Pocket Dictionary is an essential reference book in every business library, as well as in the offices of every corporate executive and independent businessperson. For legal professionals, it's an absolute must." -- Back cover.
