SKILLS
ABOUT DOUGLAS ARTHUR PIERCE
I help lawyers and legal professionals master Legal English and communicate with confidence in international settings. Based in Paris, I offer specialised online courses, coaching, and training for law firms. I also curate private cultural experiences through Vendôme Circle. Legal English Expert | Online Courses in Legal English | Lecturer With nearly a decade of experience, I have helped French-speaking lawyers and law students refine their Legal English skills across key practice areas. I am the creator of Legal English Essentials, the first in a structured three-course series designed specifically for French-speaking legal professionals. This course integrates comparisons with French legal concepts and grammar, translations, and exercises, equipping lawyers to speak confidently about French law in English. Participants gain practical skills to navigate international legal contexts while understanding French, British, and American legal terminology. While Legal English Essentials is currently tailored for French-speaking lawyers, I plan to adapt my online courses for Spanish, Portuguese, and Italian-speaking legal professionals. In the meantime, I am also prepared to offer customised online training, coaching, and evaluations for law firms in Spain, Italy, Portugal, and Latin America. As an Adjunct Lecturer at the University of Paris Nanterre, I help future legal professionals develop the linguistic precision and analytical tools needed to excel in international legal practice.
