<p align="justify">The general theory of terms pays much attention to the analysis of the system of lexical units forming terminological systems. The composition of terms is considered by linguists from various points of view: their origin, structure, semantic characteristics, etc. This article deals with the problem of classification of terminological units with the example of legal terminology from the point of view of subsystems of terms existing in the legal terminology and acquisition of terminological properties by lexical units. This process may be represented by a series of stages at which lexical units acquire various terminological properties.</font>
