AB The use of legal language has traditionally been limited to professional settings. However, with the increasing popularity of legal dramas, this language has been exposed to the general public. The aim of this study is to analyze and evaluate the translation from English to Spanish of the legal language used in season one of the TV series How to Get Away with Murder. A total of 17 examples have been extracted, classified, analyzed and evaluated based on the translation techniques applied and the contexts in which they appear. The results reveal that, although the translation has not been as accurate as expected in some cases, the meaning of the original message has been maintained. Moreover, the audience’s understanding is prioritized over the preciseness of the translation. In other words, the translation has been realized with the aim of conveying the original message as closely as possible considering the audience’s knowledge.
