Introduction: With the evolution of the world and the different needs of students, different interdisciplinary relationships have arisen. Currently, with globalization and standardization worldwide, the English language is considered “the lingua franca” and is considered the official language of world communication and that is why it has become considered TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language). to TESL (Teaching English as a Second Language). Objective: to collect contextual and bibliographic information in the area of law regarding the teaching of English and its influence on the development of communicative and linguistic skills in future lawyers who not only learn to speak in English but also know how to speak in public, knowing how to reach an audience with a message, in other words, selling your profession. Materials and Methods: Qualitative methodology and descriptive study were used to analyze the need to study the English language in law school. Results: The purpose is to make students aware of the consideration of learning this language, which already has great preponderance worldwide, not only as a means of communication but as a promoter of the development of creativity and other critical thoughts to be developed, in addition to the consideration knowing how to communicate and speak in front of an audience with great solvency, not only linguistically but also persuasively communicative. Discussion: Unquestionably, the support that learning a language gives to the training of a lawyer is immense, one of the approaches used for teaching a language, perhaps with the greatest number of techniques or strategies for the development of communicative and linguistic skills. Neurolinguistic Programming has them. Conclusions: In an increasingly globalized world, the teaching of English in law studies is essential due to the growing internationalization of legal practice and the need to communicate with clients, colleagues and courts in an international environment.
