Derecho vs Ley
"Derecho" is an appropriate translation for the word "law" in most contexts, particularly when referring to legal rights or the legal system as a whole. However, in some cases, depending on the context, you might use the word "ley" to refer specifically to a law (as in a statute or regulation).
Derecho is more general and refers to the field of law, legal rights, or the body of law (i.e., the legal system as a whole).
Ley refers specifically to a law, rule, or regulation that has been enacted.
"Derecho" works well because this text discusses the broader legal system and concepts, not just individual laws.
