Description Nowadays, the problems of enhancing professional competence of future professionals, their training for future
activities in the current socio-economic conditions are extremely urgent. Exploration of higher education
standards applied in recent years reveals a significant increase in the requirements for foreign language
knowledge gained by non-linguistic students. In terms of intensive cooperation with foreign partners, it is
extremely important to be able to communicate with foreign colleagues. Therefore, one of the core elements of
lawyers’ professional competence is the ability to speak a foreign language at the level that is accessible for
perception by a recipient. That is why teaching a foreign language as a means of communication in the future
professional activity should be a priority goal of teachers. Thus, the formation of foreign language professional
communicative competence of lawyers required for the use and analysis of foreign language information and
data is an actual goal of the modern high school.
The aim of the research is to specify the role of foreign language for the development of lawyers’ professional
communicative competence.
It should be noted that the formation of professional skills of students in the process of learning foreign
languages will be effective if the current level of personal development is taken into consideration as well as the
prospects for professional development, possible communication difficulties are anticipated and prevented by
means of adequate tasks for group and individual work, systematic activities aimed at developing motivation and
reasoning of joint decisions are organized.
So, we can conclude that professionally-oriented teaching of a foreign language enables to organize active
cooperation of all participants of the communication, which ensures mutual exchange of authentic,
professionally meaningful information in a foreign language and mastering skills of professional
communication. Professionally-oriented teaching English to law students at non-linguistic universities should be
organized considering professional specifics. One of the most important elements of professional competence of
future specialists is a good command of foreign language. Peculiarities of the formation of professional skills of
future lawyers in the process of learning foreign languages are studied in the article. The stages of learning a
foreign language and key communication qualities and competences formed in a specialist while studying
foreign languages are analyzed.
