SLIG EDUCATION

SLIG EDUCATION has been organising Legal English courses, seminars and workshops for the past 10 years, both around Italy (covering Rome, Verona, Genoa, Padua, Turin, Naples, Florence, etc.) and in London (at the extraordinary location of the Law Society of England and Wales on Chancery Lane). You may say … there are many training organisations which offer many different courses. So, what makes SLIG Education courses different from other training options? 1. SLIG’s training team consists exclusively of legal professionals (international lawyers, solicitors, barristers, university Law professors). We are not language teachers, we all work as practising cross border consultants on a daily basis and we all transfer our professional knowledge and experience into our courses. 2. We teach the language AND the law as well (UK legal system). This is why SLIG’s offer represents the most practical option available on the market: we understand exactly what issues colleagues need to face daily. We work side by side with notaries, accountants, trainees, in-house counsel, managers and entrepreneurs and we know exactly what tools they need to use and what skills they need to enhance in order to internationalise their business. We help our students practise their communication skills (both written and oral) with interactive exercise sessions and role-plays, we guide them in finding and using the correct legal English term for each document in different fields of law (international contracts, company law, real property, trust, litigation and dispute resolution), we are able to compare and help understand different legal systems, we use original legal documents, and guide our students in negotiating, amending and challenging them. Last but not least, All SLIG courses are duly credited by the relevant professional organisations (CNF, ordini locali, Notariato, ecc.).
