Legal Document Translation California

Legal Translation Overview

Individuals who are looking for a translation completed by a legal translator often need important documents such as contracts, powers of attorney, leases, and court orders translated from a foreign language to English or vice versa. They might be working for a law office or the legal department of an organization. They could also be private parties that are need a legal document translated for their personal use. Even if they speak the target language they might be hesitant to translate legal text themselves because their understanding is that the translator needs to have certain qualifications and have extensive experience in legal translation. In addition, they might be planning to submit the translation to a party that requires the translation to be completed by a professional translation services provider. Many organizations such as degree evaluation service providers, courts, law firms, and medical offices expect foreign language documents to be translated into English by professional legal translators.

What Legal Translators Do

Legal translators usually hold a degree in legal translation and have been trained to translate legal terminology from the source language into the target language. They commonly have been trained to translate legal text such as licensing agreements, deeds, non-disclosure agreements, and employment contracts. They often specialize in a specific area of law. They might have experience translating official transcripts and degrees issued by law schools as well as statutes and codes, bylaws, etc. When they translate a legal document they use their knowledge and expertise in the field of legal translation to deliver accurate and well-written translations.

Who Needs a Legal Translator

Individuals who are completing immigration applications and need to have a legal document translated often require the services of legal translation services providers that meet the requirements of USCIS. Immigration officials do not always ask for legal documents to be translated. They might also ask for bank statements and academic documents to be translated. If you are submitting an application to USCIS or you have received an RFE and are in need of certified translation services, please get in touch with us. We can translate legal text and other types of documents.

Translation for Law Schools

Law schools in the United States commonly require international candidates to provide the official translation of their academic documents for admissions. If you obtained a degree from a school overseas and are planning to apply to a law school in the United States that has requested a certified translation of your academic records, please contact us. Please let us know whether the school of law needs the translation to be completed by a member of ATA or they have provided any other special requirements. We can also translate research papers, publications, and other documents for law schools.
