Description
Summary:Abstract. The legal argument is a rhetorical procedure in which the interpreter constructs the meaning of the law by performing language actions on the self-referential language of the legal statement and on the language of the various narrative versions of the fact at trial.

This article proposes rhetorical resources that enable the construction of the meaning of the argumentative discourse in the lawsuit.
