Being a law student i regularly use the legal dictionary website but the app is not as it should be.It does not have any feature .it has just a search bar ,that's it! At least provide a chrome plugin which can be used while reading cases.
Easy and straight forward, no guess work or having to differentiate between the standard and legal definition of a word and trying to weed through different dictionaries hoping you are using the term correctly (especially when using on actual court documents and in front of a real judge, it does help your case a bit if you don't sound like a complete idiot). It's all legal terms all in one place. Very convenient and time saving. Thanks for this information!
Excellent dictionary. Although the interface is a little dated, it has a plethora of legal terminology and the pronunciation tool is a nice addition.
The app is very good for researching legal matters. It's the best I've ever used so far thanks to the producers. They have really provided legal researchers with all they want to know about any matter on law or legal thoughts. So I would refer the app to everyone was looking for the perfect app for his or her legal researchers this is the best I've seen and I bet it is going to be the best that you will ever see. Thanks
Good for quick idea, however you need to consider other sources also for complete understanding. What i like is examples, there are some in some words but i'd like to see more examples, examples is what could be the USP so i request developers to include more examples.
I really enjoy using this app when I'm unclear about the definition of any legal word. I also appreciate the definitions that provide the etymology or historical beginnings and changes of a word and how it's use has come to where it is today.
Very informative on information. Thank you continue your great work on apps you create! Honesty on facts for truth is so rare in this life time. I'd give 💯 stars if I could.
Am an incoming freshman law student and am trying to do an advance reading on one of the law books. Whenever I encounter a word that I couldn't understand, I go here and so far it's good. It does help me out.
After downloading many applications It's the most competent ... It solves all my problems in seconds. I appreciate the effort of publisher... It's No one .. Prayers for publisher ...
This is an excellent app. The definitions are precise and well explained. The addition of citations and further discussion helps clarify a particular word or concept.
As a layman seeking clarification of legal terms, this Dictionary has been a wonderful ally. Its simplicity, clarity and profundity make it user-friendly.
Oh my God !!! Great application for LAW students. Ask for one thing and get a huge data. Definitely great app for me. Every thing with references. Best application I have after a long time.
Understanding Latin words and phrases help me to better understand what I am reading. It offers tremendous benefits! Love it!
It's really awesome. I do recommend the reader of my comment to click the button and download the application, I'm quite certain you enjoy the company of this application 😀 😊
Wonderful tool for research and legal scholarship. Gives you an in-depth understanding of legal concepts and phrases. Advisable to use while connected to the internet.
The dictionary is an exhaustive compilation, and the way of using it if undoubtedly admirable.
I use this app for 2 years and I like it. I can find most of legal words meaning. Discribe very well. This is the best legal dictionary.
A massive collection of information and I like it. I hope this will take new evolution of wide range information. Only Constitution of US I can find, please add other country Please add download resources for offline
I hope you update the content, include maxims, and have a text-to-speech to know the correct pronunciation of words and maxims.
Simple yet accurate definition of words. Got the words I needed in a snap. No hassle, so far.
Its very good but I want to give one suggestion here just like general words's pronunciation there should be pronunciation of latin maxims, it will be greater help for law students
Still evaluating, will update later. Upon further evaluation, I find that this app is OUTSTANDING! At least on my LG G7 PLATINUM. Going to install on my new Samsung Galaxy S20+5G hope it's still GOOD🤔 😉
within seconds of openong the app i can tell tgat it was well thoughtout the layout is simple and the information is great ...... this maybe a quick rate byt so far....im pleased
Great app and great effort but there are some words that are offline. if this app is fully offline then it deserves 5 star rating.
ads are frequent. it slows down the app
Highly enlightening, impressive, and Informative ! I highlyecommend this app .
Good layout, easy to use and great information. I would definitely recommend it.
Very detailed explanations which are easy to understand. Bravo!!
Great app for convenient legal referencing when you don't want to search Google and have hundreds of different explanations or definitions pop up. Would have given it 5 stars, but it does NOT have the ability to alphabetically arrange my bookmarked definitions. I have to scroll all the way through the bookmarks to find the exact definition I'm looking for. That's pretty I convenient.
