Only English law dictionary helpful on civil law matters,
By A Customer
This review is from: Bouviers Law Dictionary and Concise Encyclopedia (Hardcover)
I am a member of the New York and Brazilian bars and have practiced law bridging the two jurisdictions for almost 30 years. In my practice, I have found Bouvier's Law Dictionary to be the only English-language law dictionary that cites and explains civil law concepts and institutions for the common-law lawyer. It is also the most useful English-language dictionary for the civil law lawyer trying to understand common law concepts, such as fiducuary duty, bailment, equity and the like.

This is the secret dictionary used by US Supreme Court,
By A Customer
This review is from: Bouviers Law Dictionary and Concise Encyclopedia (Hardcover)
I'm not a lawyer but I play one on television. If I was going to throw the book at someone, this is the book I would want to throw. I mean, it's a really BIG dictionary! Lots of words, but, unfortunately, no pictures. I especially like the definition of "wharfinger," also "Herkemer."
