Foreign language ability has always been an important aspect to measure the quality and professional level of legal professionals, especially the new situation of economic globalization and China's deepening opening up has put forward higher requirements for legal workers' English ability. However, due to the particularity of legal English, there has never been a scientific evaluation index to measure the mastery of professional English by legal practitioners in China. The introduction of the National Unified Examination for Legal English Certificate (LEC) has filled the gaps in related fields in China. The types and contents of the Certificate Examination in Legal English are similar to those of the American Bar Examination. At the same time, the characteristics of legal English language use are highlighted, and the legal English translation test is added according to the actual situation in China. Personnel of public security organs, enterprises and institutions engaged in foreign-related legal work; Lawyers engaged in foreign-related legal affairs and employees of the company's legal department; College students majoring in law, English, economy and trade; Teachers who are willing to teach legal English and all legal English lovers in the society can take the LEC exam. Examination certificate is the authoritative proof of the professional English level of the staff engaged in foreign-related legal services, and obtaining LEC certificate through examination is also a reliable guarantee for studying law in the United States and obtaining the professional qualification of American lawyers.
