Answer 3

De ley, you hear it a lot more in Ecuador, but that doesn't mean you won't hear it anywhere else, pretty much the same as "de hecho" or "por supuesto", meaning "absolutely" "definitely" "of course" "hands down" "by all means", etc. Well you "de ley" get the idea, don't you?

It can mean many different things, we'd need some context.

For example oro de ley means pure gold, hombre de ley, reliable man etc
