Abstract
The aim of this article is to present a very comprehensive and useful argument analysis model for the study of law, built from the 1980s onwards by Canadian professor Douglas nº Walton, which includes, in an integrated and systematic way, logic, dialectic, and rhetoric. The logic that interests the model is the informal one, based on the study of arguments as they appear in everyday language. The dialectical dimension resides in considering arguments as components of a dialogue. The rhetorical element inhabits the argumentation schemes, which are also logical and dialectical tools. The completeness and versatility of the model make it a very interesting option for understanding various legal phenomena. It can also be of practical interest for the parties to a legal dispute.
