Legal

Legal refers to anything related to the law, the system of rules that a particular country or community recognizes as regulating the actions of its members. It encompasses the principles, statutes, regulations, and customs that govern the conduct of individuals and organizations. The term can also relate to the practice of law, which involves legal professionals such as lawyers and judges who interpret and apply these rules in various contexts. Legal matters can include areas such as criminal law, civil rights, contracts, property, and torts, among others. Additionally, “legal” can imply that something is permitted or authorized by law, distinguishing it from what is illegal, or against the law.
