We report on specific heat of (Ce,La)Pd2X2 compounds. The antiferromagnetic ground state is revealed in Ce-based analogues. The field induced ferromagnetic order is observed in magnetic fieldsss higher than 1 T. The structural phase transition on specific heat data is well pronounced in both Ce compounds and LaPd2Ga2. The thorough analysis of specific heat data is presented.
