Translation
SERVICES
Our translation program provides official translation services in the areas of legal, medical, business, and scientific, as well as for most general documents.
In addition to translation, we also provide editing and proofreading services. We take pride in our ability to bridge the cultural and linguistic divides between the client and service providers. Our translators work exclusively in their native tongues and in their areas of specialization. Rigorous standards of quality control are an essential part of our translation process – all texts are proofed by a second native speaker who ensures that the accuracy, fluency, and style of translation is in-line with the clients’ specifications.
