Statute Translator
Paste any statute, code section, or legal provision and receive a plain-English translation plus a glossary of legal terms. Works on federal and state law.
Paste Statute Text
Best results on statutory text (e.g., 18 U.S.C. § 1341, Cal. Penal Code § 211). The translator handles common archaic legal phrases — not full case opinions.

Plain-Language Aid Only — Consult a Licensed Attorney
This translator performs simple keyword substitution to make legalese easier to read. It cannot interpret legal effect, identify defenses, weigh case law, or replace legal advice. The plain-English version may oversimplify, omit nuance, or fail to capture terms of art that have specialized legal meaning. For any actual legal matter, consult a licensed attorney.
