Legal translation

Legal translation is work that requires the most careful attention. Many things – the outcome of the transaction, relationship with a foreign partner, business prospects abroad depend on how correctly the text will be translated. And the main difficulty is not only legal terms and phrases, but also the specificity of a foreign language.

Of course, the terminology is one of the most important parts of any legal text. When performing translation of a statute or contract, a specialist must first understand the terms. Special dictionaries, and sometimes – the client’s knowledge are often used for this. In the latter case, the work on the glossary is conducted jointly with the customer, who is well-versed in this field.

Compilation of a glossary is just the first part of the work on the translation of a legal document. After all obscure terms and phrases are translated and understood by the translator, he/she starts working with the text itself. In this case, he/she will require not only a rich vocabulary, but also the knowledge of law, and a subtle flair. Quite often, the literal translation does not reflect the essence of the phrase or the whole text, and the slightest inaccuracy can lead to serious consequences.
