social law
The area of law that regulates a state's social security systems, such as health insurance, pension insurance, unemployment insurance, long-term care insurance, and social assistance.
Sie hat sich an einen Anwalt für Sozialrecht gewandt, weil ihre Erwerbsminderungsrente abgelehnt wurde.
She contacted a lawyer specializing in social law because her reduced earning capacity pension was denied.
The word is made up of the adjective 'sozial' (social) and the noun 'das Recht' (law/right). It therefore refers to the part of the legal system that deals with citizens' social security and welfare.
Das Sozialrecht soll die grundlegenden Bedürfnisse der Menschen sichern.
Social law is intended to secure people's basic needs.
'Sozialrecht' (social law) is a technical term from law and administration. In everyday life, most people are more likely to talk about the specific topics, such as 'Rente' (pension), 'Arbeitslosengeld' (unemployment benefit), or 'Krankenversicherung' (health insurance).

The word is frequently used in connection with legal professions or institutions. Typical combinations are 'Anwalt für Sozialrecht' (lawyer for social law), 'Experte für Sozialrecht' (expert in social law), or 'das zuständige Sozialgericht' (the competent social court).
