The purpose of the paper is to present how the basic assumption of the professional language, namely precision, is implemented in legal texts. The paper focuses on language structures that are characteristic of the legal language but at the same time affect its precision. Some examples include ambiguous terms, or unclear and underspecified expressions. The paper concentrates mainly on analysing legal definitions as a way of avoiding ambiguity as well as on the manner of building correct definitions. The author indicates which categories of errors should be avoided in constructing legal definitions (vicious circle of definition; defining the unknown by the unknown; definition irrelevance) in order to make a legal text clear. Given that legal norms define orders, prohibitions and permits, precision of the language used is of paramount importance. For it is precision that influences interpretation as well as translation to foreign languages.
