Legal translation

Are you a lawyer or are you dealing with a contract for an international partner? Or perhaps you are an HR officer with an employment contract for a new foreign employee? Or do you want to offer your company’s general terms and conditions in other languages? For all these translation assignments, you need a (legal) translator to translate the relevant document accurately and using the right terminology.

What is a legal translation?

A legal translation is a translation of a document or text in the legal field. This might include contracts, deeds, amendments to the articles of association or a power of attorney. Translating legal texts is a specialist undertaking, due to the very specific terminology used and the requirements some documents need to meet.

Top quality legal translations

A mistake in a legal text can have far-reaching consequences. A good legal translation therefore requires professional knowledge, accuracy and an eye for detail. At Bothof Translations, we always deliver a top-quality legal translation. A translation that meets your expectations and requirements.

To guarantee the quality of our translations, every translation is screened by a professional revisor. This additional check assures you of a faultless translation. Furthermore, our quality system has ISO 9001 certification, while our translation procedures have ISO 17100 certification. This all means that you can be sure that your translations will be handled with care.

Specialist fields

It is obviously vital that the right terminology is used for specific specialist fields in legal translations. Bothof Translations delivers legal translations for different specialist fields, such as financial law, notarial law and business law.

For this and other specialist fields, we work with translators who are specialised in one or more legal fields. Besides standard (digital) dictionaries and databases, our translators also use our own terminology database. Here, terminology for various legal fields is updated.

Sworn translations, legalisation and apostille

Obviously, we also offer sworn translations. In this case, a text is translated by a sworn translator. This is a requirement for some official documents, such as deeds, documents from the civil registry and school certificates. With our extensive network of sworn translators, we can translate these documents in nearly any language.

If your company operates internationally, you will often need to check the small print in business legal texts. However, all too often this is written in a foreign language. Correct translations are then vitally important.

Smooth communication is essential for your international successes. We work with translators who are at home in business law and who understand the importance of delivery contracts, articles of association, general terms and conditions and strategic plans.
