Local law firms generally author the chapters, which are in Q & A format.
Bilingual Spanish/English legal dictionaries are available at the UIC Law Library. See a reference librarian for help locating them. Note that there is also a free online dictionary of Chilean legal terms available (in Spanish only), produced in collaboration with Chile's Poder Judicial.
