Jargon is the term that refers to those special words or expression which are used in a particular profession, and it may be difficult for others to understand such words if they they are not familiar with your profession. Jargon in legal communications is harmful because it would create misunderstandings. A particular word can have different meanings, depending on the profession they are in. Hope this answers your question.
