Spanish for Attorneys and Paralegals ("SFAP") would be most beneficial to someone who is at least a little conversant in Spanish and wants to acquire a legal vocabulary. Although SFAP includes a good basic review of the Spanish language, it is not a beginner's Spanish book. SFAP does, however, make a great companion to a general study of the Spanish language. The content is comprehensive and well organized. I appreciate the cultural comments. The audio CDs are a bonus and fun in the car. This is my second Barron's Spanish book/CD purchase and I'm happy with both of them!

The book teaches spanish grammer as well as providing translation. It takes a person with no spanish language skills and attempts to teach the grammar skills to properly speak and understand spanish. For the person that already knows some spanish, it provides basic one word as well as more involved complete phrases or sentences. Includes CD which I have not listened to, but allows for passive learning while driving. Book also has mutiple choice tests. Not a pocket dictionary, too large, better suited for an office as a reference book.

Fantastic book. I learned so much from each and every page. It offered important phrases, grammatical rules, legally relevant concepts. I cannot say enough about this book. It is well worth the money asked. And, in case you deem this relevant, I am usually a harsh critic, and am a U.S. barred, active lawyer!

This was recommended to me by a law professor to improve my Spanish. The book does a great job of laying out commonly used phrases and translating different phrases for different types of law. It does not replace having someone to speak Spanish with, but it does help understand the right vocabulary to use.

Just the 60+ pages of glossary in the back of the book is well worth the price. In addition, I transferred the files on the CDs to my phone where I can use this resource at court or whenever I am waiting.

Great book. I love the phonics and subject materials. The CDs are great to listen to while driving.

Lots of good vocabulary. Not nearly enough "exercises" to make full sentences with it though. It doesn't really teach much grammar, as other reviews mentioned. The CD's are only fair. They are VERY basic, like -ar verbs and descriptive adjective after the noun. The CD's are more of a spoken vocabulary list, and they don't give you any time to say the words until after they've already been said in both English and Spanish. To challenge myself or quiz myself I would have to hit pause after every single English word, then say it, in Spanish, then hear it in Spanish , and then their pause gives you a chance to repeat it once again. grr.
