For legal teams, procurement managers, or compliance officers, the question isn’t if a contract can be translated — it’s whether it will hold up in court, before a regulator, or in an audit. Our focus: legally valid translations built with the terminology of your industry, not generic phrasing.
Translators Who Speak Law and Industry
We don’t assign a financial NDA to someone who usually translates marketing brochures. Each project goes to linguists with direct experience in corporate law, arbitration, labor codes, or regulatory frameworks. Many hold law degrees; all work within ISO 17100-certified processes. This is how “jurisdiction” in energy law doesn’t end up mistranslated as “location” in your PPA.
Controlled Processes
- Standards: ISO 17100, EN 15038, GDPR, and client-specific NDAs.
- Reviews: Dual-layer QA and terminology validation.
- Data handling: Secure channels, version control, and timestamped deliveries.
- The result: contracts that are not only translated but *defensible*.
Industry Terminology Built In
Legal frameworks aren’t universal. Defense contracts reference ITAR clauses; pharma distribution agreements cite GMP; engineering contracts require CE and EN standards. We maintain sector-specific termbases to ensure consistency across every clause. A contract about software escrow will use the same string definitions your developers use in API documentation.
Technology and File Agility
Your legal text rarely lives in plain Word files. We process:
- SDLXLIFF, XML, JSON (software contracts)
- InDesign layouts, Excel annexes, bilingual tables
- CAD notes tied to safety documentation
Our CAT tools and certified DTP guarantee that pagination, numbering, and annexes remain intact. That means your translated SPA or licensing agreement is ready for signatures — not another round of formatting chaos.
Case Snapshot: Audit in 72 Hours
A European wind power firm had to deliver a 500-page German safety dossier in English before a CE audit. We mobilized four senior translators, a shared termbase, and continuous QA. Delivery: 2.5 days. Outcome: auditors passed the client without a single comment. For them, translation wasn’t just linguistic — it was regulatory survival.
Reliability Under Pressure
Deadlines collapse, clauses get rewritten overnight, regulators ask for “clean copies.” We’re used to it. Our SLAs cover urgent same-day delivery for addenda, notarized translations for court filings, and apostille-ready versions where required. If compliance is at stake, you need a partner who doesn’t panic.
“They flagged three mistranslated clauses from a previous vendor that would have invalidated our arbitration terms. That correction alone saved us months of legal exposure.”
Contracts only work if the language works. Let’s make sure yours does.
