Legal Translation That Holds Up in Court.

Legal translation is one of the few contexts where the word 'accurate' is not sufficient. A legal translation must be accurate in a technical sense -- every defined term, every procedural reference, every citation must be correctly rendered -- but it must also be appropriate for the legal system receiving it. A translation of a Mexican court judgment for use in a US proceeding needs to render the concepts in a way that makes sense within American legal terminology, not just convert the words.

We handle translation for litigation, arbitration, contracts, corporate governance, intellectual property, and immigration legal filings. For court-certified work, every translation includes a signed declaration from the translator attesting to accuracy and competence, formatted to satisfy US court requirements.

Deposition transcripts require particular attention to colloquial expressions, incomplete sentences, and speaker intent. Witness statements must convey not just what was said but what was meant. We handle these nuances because our legal translators work in legal contexts professionally -- not as a side project between other assignments.

For contracts and commercial agreements, we pay particular attention to governing law clauses, defined terms, and any concepts that do not have a direct equivalent in the target legal system. We flag these for your attorney rather than making assumptions.

Confidentiality is non-negotiable. All legal documents are handled under NDA.
