Certified translation of every legal document type — contracts, court filings, affidavits, powers of attorney, corporate records, and regulatory documents. ISO 17100-certified process, NDA-protected, dual-reviewed, and accepted by US courts. From $24.99/page.
Our legal document translators are specialists who work exclusively with legal texts. They understand the terminological precision that contracts require, the evidentiary standards courts apply, and the specific formatting needs of different legal document categories. Legal equivalence is our standard — not just linguistic accuracy.
NDA on request. Court-ready delivery.
Business contracts, non-disclosure agreements, software licenses, and service agreements. Legal equivalence is checked — our translators understand that "representations and warranties" in English has a specific legal meaning that must be rendered correctly in the target legal system, not just the target language.
Complaints, motions, orders, judgments, subpoenas, and court transcripts. Certified for direct court filing under the Federal Rules of Evidence. We include a Certificate of Accuracy formatted to the court's expectations, and can notarize when required by local court rules.
Sworn affidavits, declarations, witness statements, and legal certifications. The sworn nature of these documents demands absolute precision — a word that changes the scope of an affidavit's statement can have serious evidentiary consequences. Notarized on request.
General and limited power of attorney documents for estate, real estate, financial, and healthcare matters. POA documents grant legal authority — our translations preserve the precise scope of that authority, no more and no less than the original document grants.
Articles of incorporation, operating agreements, meeting minutes, and shareholder resolutions. For cross-border corporate structures, foreign entities, and international M&A transactions requiring due diligence on foreign corporate documents.
Foreign regulatory approvals, import/export compliance documents, international trade agreements, and cross-border compliance filings. For companies operating in multiple jurisdictions and needing regulatory documents in multiple languages.
Every legal document translation follows ISO 17100:2015 processes: qualified translator assignment, mandatory revision by a second linguist, and quality sign-off before delivery. The standard exists specifically to ensure translation quality in high-stakes professional settings.
We execute mutual NDAs on request before any project begins. All work is handled under our standard confidentiality terms. Secure file transfer via encrypted channels. Documents are not stored beyond the project retention period. We treat all legal documents as attorney-client privileged by default.
A second specialist linguist reviews every legal document translation before it reaches the client. The reviewer checks terminology accuracy, legal equivalence, completeness, and formatting. Four-eye review is not optional for legal documents — it is standard on every project regardless of size.
Standard: $24.99/page (2–5 days). Rush: $31.24/page (48 hours). Same-day: $37.49/page. Notarization +$40.
Yes. Federal Rule of Evidence 1003 and most state equivalents require that foreign-language documents submitted as evidence be accompanied by a certified English translation. "Certified" means the translator has signed a statement declaring the translation complete and accurate. Uncertified translations — including machine translations and informal human translations without a certificate — are generally not admissible. Our certified legal document translations include a Certificate of Accuracy formatted specifically for court submission and are accepted by federal and state courts nationwide.
A certified translation includes the translator's signed Certificate of Accuracy attesting to the translation's completeness and accuracy. A notarized translation additionally involves a notary public who witnesses the translator's signature and affixes a notarial seal, verifying the identity of the signatory. Most US federal and state courts require only a certified translation. Some state probate courts, foreign consulates, and international proceedings require notarization. When in doubt about court requirements, check the local rules of the specific court or consult with the receiving clerk. We provide both services — notarization adds $40.
Legal document translation is priced at $24.99/page for standard delivery (2–5 business days), $31.24/page for rush delivery (48 hours), and $37.49/page for same-day delivery. Notarization adds $40 per project. For large document sets — litigation discovery packages, M&A due diligence, multi-contract closings — we provide volume pricing that reduces per-page cost. Request a custom quote with the document count and we will provide a firm project price. All prices include the Certificate of Accuracy and dual-review quality control.
Yes. Rush delivery (48 hours) is available for $31.24/page. Same-day delivery is available for $37.49/page for orders received before noon Eastern time. For large document volumes on very tight deadlines — overnight discovery productions, emergency court filings — contact us directly before placing the order so we can assign dedicated capacity and confirm the commitment. We never miss committed rush deadlines on legal documents.
We deliver all certified legal document translations as PDF files. The delivery package includes the complete translated document, the Certificate of Accuracy, and a copy of the original document — all in a single organized PDF. For documents that are being filed with a court, the translation is formatted to match the original document's page structure as closely as possible. For contract translations that will be used in negotiation, we can deliver in Word format upon request. Hard copy with wet signature notarization is available by mail.
We support legal document translation in over 100 languages with specialist legal translators. The most frequently requested language pairs for legal translation are Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Japanese, Arabic, Russian, Italian, Dutch, Polish, and Korean. For less common language pairs, we maintain relationships with qualified specialists and can accommodate most requests. We do not assign general translators to legal documents regardless of language — every translation is assigned to a linguist with verified legal translation credentials.
