The content creator and Cuban lawyer Gladys Carredeguas, known on social media as @gladyscarredeguas, published a video that has generated a lot of buzz among her followers: "What you say vs. how it's said in legal language".
The young woman transforms everyday phrases into true gems of legal language. The video begins with a question: “How would you say ‘I am right’ in legal language?” Her response is immediate and precise: “My position is supported by verifiable facts and legally admissible evidence.”
The lawyer continues with a list of examples that she translates accurately into legal language
- “You are ignorant.” → “You demonstrate a manifest lack of knowledge about the facts under discussion.”
- “Do what you want.” → “It is up to the other party to proceed in the manner they deem appropriate.”
- “I do not accept that.” → “I formally declare my rejection of this claim.”
- “That is not my responsibility.”
- “That makes no sense.” → “The allegation lacks logical and legal support.”
- “That’s not fair.” → “The proposed measure is incompatible and disproportionate to the principles of fairness.”
The video has been widely shared for its clever way of demonstrating how lawyers can transform any common phrase into a formal statement.
Many users in the comments have highlighted the humor and creativity with which Gladys manages to reflect the legal universe.
An internet user expressed with laughter: "I told my wife 'it's up to the other party to proceed as they see fit' and she threw the frying pan at me."
Gladys is the daughter of Cuban immigrants in the United States
The lawyer stated in one of her posts: "My parents left everything they were behind to give me a future in this country. (...) I want them to be able to proudly say: 'Our daughter protects and defends thousands of immigrants like us, because she understands the sacrifices we had to endure.'"
The video featuring transformed colloquial phrases, using legal terms, has already amassed over 68,000 interactions and exceeds one million views.
The lawyer continues to grow in popularity due to her fun and educational style, which resonates with those who have ever dreamed of "mastering the legal language."
