This study explores law students’ perceptions of professional foreign language education and the role of technology-based communication in developing their communicative competence. Data from structured interviews indicate that most participants view language learning as vital for career success, yet face challenges such as limited professional vocabulary, reliance on traditional methods, and low motivation. Students identified case studies, problem-solving, and game-based learning as the most effective approaches for enhancing communication skills. The findings suggest that integrating interactive technologies can significantly strengthen intercultural and professional communicative competence in legal education.
