Law
Law is a system of rules intended to govern society, usually through the threat of some form of punishment or reprimand upon the transgression of such a rule. Law frames everyday life and society in a wide variety of ways.
 
Contract law
Contract law regulates everything from buying a bus ticket to trading swaptions on a derivatives market. When mortgaging or renting a house, property law defines people's rights and duties towards a bank or landlord. When earning pensions, trust law protects savings.Trademark Lawyer Directory
 
Tort law
Tort law allows claims for compensation when someone or their property is harmed. But if the harm is criminalized, and the act is intentional, then criminal law offers means to prosecute the perpetrator. Society itself is built upon law.
 
Constitutional law
Constitutional law provides a framework for making new laws, protecting people's human rights, and electing political representatives, while administrative law allows ordinary citizens to challenge the way government bodies exercise their power.Tax Lawyer Directory
 
International law
International law regulates the affairs between sovereign nation states in everything from trade, to the environment, to military action.The rule of law, wrote the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle in 350 BC, is better than the rule of any individual.Wrongful Death Lawyer Directory
 
Public international law
Public international law concerns the relationships between sovereign nations. It has a special status as law because there is no international police force, and courts lack the capacity to penalize disobedience. The sources for public international law to develop are custom, practice and treaties between sovereign nations.NJ Lawyer Directory
 
The United Nations, founded under the UN Charter and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights is the most important international organisation, established after the failure of the Versailles Treaty and World War II. Other international agreements, like the Geneva Conventions on the conduct of war, and international bodies such as the International Labour Organisation, the World Trade Organisation, or the International Monetary Fund also form a growing part of public international law.Personal Injury Lawyer Directory
 
Private international law
Private international law concerns which jurisdiction a legal dispute between private parties should be heard in and which jurisdiction's law should be applied. Today businesses are increasingly capable of shifting capital and labour supply chains across borders, as well as trading with overseas businesses. This increases the number of disputes outside a unified legal framework and the enforceability of standard practices. Increasing numbers of businesses opt for commercial arbitration under the New York Convention 1958.Newyork Lawyer Directory
 
European Union law
European Union law is the first and only example of a supranational legal framework. However, given increasing global economic integration many regional agreements, especially the South American Community of Nations, are on track to follow the same model. In the EU, sovereign nations have pooled their authority through a system of courts and political institutions. They have the ability to enforce legal norms against and for member states and citizens, in a way that public international law does not.As the European Court of Justice said in 1962, European Union law constitutes "a new legal order of international law" for the mutual social and economic benefit of the member states.
 
Constitutional and administrative law
Constitutional and administrative law govern the affairs of the state. Constitutional law concerns both the relationships between the executive, legislature and judiciary and the human rights or civil liberties of individuals against the state.Sandiego Lawyer Directory
 
Criminal law
Criminal law is the body of law that defines criminal offences and the penalties for convicted offenders. Apprehending, charging, and trying suspected offenders is regulated by the law of criminal procedure. In every jurisdiction, a crime is committed where two elements are fulfilled. First, the criminal must have the requisite malicious intent to do a criminal act, or mens rea i.e. guilty mind. Second, he must commit the criminal act, or actus reus i.e. guilty act. Examples of different kinds of crime might include murder, assault, fraud or theft.Michigan Lawyer Directory
 
Property law
Property law governs everything that people call 'theirs'. Real property, sometimes called 'real estate' or a right in rem, refers to ownership of land and things attached to it. Personal property, or a right in personam, refers to everything else; movable objects, such as computers and sandwiches or intangible rights, like stocks and shares and the copyright on a song.Real Estate Lawyer Directory
 
Land law forms the basis for most kinds of property law, and is the most complex. It concerns mortgages, rental agreements, licences, convenants, easements and the statutory systems for registration of land. Regulations on the use of personal property fall under intellectual property, company law, trusts and commercial law.
 
Legal subjects in Law
 
Different countries often categories and name legal subjects in different ways. Sometimes people distinguish "public law" subjects, which relate closely to the state including constitutional, administrative and criminal law, from "private law" subjects including contract, tort, property. In civil law systems contract and tort fall under a general law of obligations and trusts law is dealt with under statutory regimes or international conventions. All legal systems deal with the same issues, because the same questions are raised in every society.Mesothelioma Lawyer Directory
 
To practice law, students usually learn certain core subjects, which for example in England are European Community Law, constitutional and administrative law, criminal law, contract, tort, property law and trusts. However there are many further disciplines, which may be of even greater practical importance than the traditional core subjects and outside the EU, students may focus on different agreements under international law, such as NAFTA, SAFTA, CSN, ASEAN or the African Union. The best way to grasp the importance of these subjects is careful individual study.
 
Legal profession
Lawyers give people advice about their legal rights and duties and represent them in court, for the law to be adequately accessible to everyone, and for people to be able to foresee what law means for them.
 
Once accredited, a lawyer will often work in a law firm, in a chambers, as a sole practitioner, for a government or as internal counsel at a private corporation. Another option is to become a legal researcher who provides on-demand legal research through a commercial service or on a freelance basis. Many people trained in law put their skills to use outside the legal field entirely.Medical Malpractice Lawyer Directory
