Attorney Translation Services Tips

Tip 1- Do Not Hire a Non-Professional Interpreter for Your Legal Matter:

Do not hire a non-professional legal interpreter who is not even a native speaker of the foreign language in question. Is your legal department speaking the same foreign language as your multilingual clients? Poorly translated documents or sub-par court interpretation can change a case’s outcome, injure a company’s international reputation, and even elicit a class-action lawsuit. Your reputation is literally in your legal foreign language translator’s hands—and an unqualified foreign language translator can bring disastrous results. Read more.

Tip 2- Financial Document Translation is More than Just Typing in Another Language:

Tip 4- Legal Translation Requires Knowledge and Expertise:

Do not yield to the temptation of cheap and fast legal translations. Sure, you can answer spam emails touting legal translation for $10 a page. Or, press your legal translation company for a 24-hour turnaround. However, your least expensive and fastest translations can mean huge problems later. Read more.
