PLEAD is a Legal English training course designed to provide lawyers and law students with essential English skills for legal practice in the 21st century. Developed by TransLegal in cooperation with the Boston University School of Law, the Boston University Center for English Language and Orientation Programs, and Cambridge University Press, PLEAD uses a "blended learning" approach that has an online element and a coursebook element..

Lawyers and law students can use PLEAD to improve their Legal English by combining an online self-study course with live instruction or distance learning support using the coursebook, International Legal English. Universities, language schools, law firms, companies, and bar associations can provide language training using PLEAD to law students and lawyers.
