Black’s Law Dictionary Digital Bundle + Bonus Black’s Law Dictionary Pocket 3 ED
This is a great law dictionary, with just about everything you would want to know. The only bad thing I can say is, it should have a cd for your own portable use. It is just a validation code to download the dictionary which is misleading because a little booklet comes in a hugh box that you assume is a cd.

Being a law student, time saving is very important. Looking up a legal term in a printed law dictionary consumes must time. With Black’s Law Dictionary Digital, I just need a few seconds to find a term.

I’ll use this review as an opportunity to steer you to the most cost-effectively useful dictionary tool ever: WordWeb Pro. After install, you press Ctrl-right-click and WordWeb Pro pops up with a definition for the word under the cursor. It also links you to popular web resources (like Wikipedia), and gives you anagrams, synonyms, etc.
Law definitions? Well, yes it has them, but without annotations like you’ll find in Black’s.
I have not succeeded in getting the author Antony to add Blacks or Bouviers or Ballentines, but Wikipedia gets ever better in its law definitions, far better IMO than Black’s.
WordWebPro gives you seamless integration with Windows and ALL its applications, PERIOD. And for another $29 you can get an addition word list containing millions of words and phrases. Yes, I wish it had Black’s in it, but so what? It’s still the best writing tool, aside from my word processor, that I’ve ever used.

This dictionary can be used by persons who want to get acquainted with legal terminology, but it is a precious tool for translators too. Also, as a legal professional, you may have ambiguities or question marks regarding a term. These ones will disappear immediately due to the multitude of explanations and contexts provided.
