Spanish-English Dictionary of Law and Business
by Thomas L. West, Tomas L. West, III

This new dictionary provides a ready reference to essential terms and phrases used in all areas of law and business, including accounting, banking, civil law, civil procedure, contracts, corporate law, criminal law, criminal procedure, economics, intellectual property, labor law, real property, secured transactions, securities law, and torts. Written by an American attorney who is also an accredited translator, it provides complete coverage of terminology used in all Spanish-speaking countries, not just those countries where the other bilingual dictionaries on the market were written (i.e., Spain and Argentina). Accordingly, it is the only source for translations of terms that are unique to countries such as Colombia, Peru and Venezuela. The dictionary was thoroughly researched using original documents and monolingual dictionaries from the Spanish-speaking various countries and is thus authoritative and up-to-date. No lawyer or translator who works with Spanish legal and business documents can afford to be without it.

Workplace Spanish for City & County Government

Learn to communicate simply, but effectively, with Spanish-speaking citizens, workers and contractors in day-to-day situations! It’s easier than you think – no grammar, no alphabet to memorize, no rules to study. You don’t need to learn "the entire language" to be effective - just learn key phrases and terms specifically used by City and County Government employees in your daily work environment.
Workplace Spanish® for City & County Government has been created from training classes conducted for the growing cities of Atlanta and Alpharetta, Georgia. This is the same program being used by colleges to teach government employees in Wichita, Kansas; Clayton County, Georgia; Chandler, Arizona; and other locations across the US.

Our quick-reference manual contains more than 450 key terms and phrases, divided into useful topics which meet daily communication needs. You’ll master Spanish pronunciation and be able to engage in short conversations focusing on greeting and identifying people, serving citizens and assisting them with licenses, payments, applications and forms; dealing with water leaks, street repairs, and other specific city services. The book also features a practical quiz section called Drills for Skills, as well as a helpful alphabetical keyword list for easy reference.

The one-hour audio CD covers all phrases covered in the book, plus pronunciation tips and suggestions on how to learn more quickly. The CD features both a native Spanish speaker and a non-fluent, yet accurate English speaker repeating the terms and phrases.
