Translation services

We specialize in translation into English, with in-house linguists and PMs of American and British origins offering French translation services and Polish translation services, and can take on a wide variety of other source languages by tapping into a trusted network of native English translators.

Thanks to a trusted and reliable network of linguists all over the world, spanning a number of fields, disciplines, and languages, we are also able to provide native speaker translations from English into a variety of international languages upon request.

In addition to the translation of more standard files like Microsoft Word or Excel, we are equipped to deal with more difficult file types like those for desktop publishing, IT or market research surveys. Whatever the case at hand, our work flow of project management, translation teams, automated checks, and quality assurance (QA) specialists means that the file we return to you is ready for publication, launch, or simply for your own personal needs.

Apart from general copy and texts dealing with broader issues, from newspaper clippings to academic abstracts on geopolitical issues to annual reports to conference presentations and more, we also help our clients with a few specialized forms of translation, as found below.

  • LEGAL TRANSLATION

Working on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean means that we regularly help both our American and European clients with their legal translation needs, be they certified translations of immigration documents bound for United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), European Union reports, contracts, birth, death, and marriage certificates, articles of incorporation, data protection (GDPR), terms of reference for procurement, confidentiality agreements, purchase agreements, as well as excerpts from official records, among others.

Following the translation process itself, our revisers scrutinize the translations before they are returned to our clients, resulting in translations that are free from mistakes, misinterpretation, or ambiguity.

  • MARKETING TRANSLATION

While many companies deploy effective marketing campaigns in their home countries, they often stumble when venturing into foreign markets, where verbatim translations of their native marketing materials simply don’t have quite the same impact or meaning. Worse yet, they can even end up being offensive to the target audience, or hilariously out of touch.

Our marketing translation team takes your marketing texts, from product and service descriptions to large-scale business presentations and more, and not only translates them, but localizes them, including carrying out brand name/disaster checks if necessary – in other words, ensuring that your messaging actually makes sense both linguistically and culturally in a given target market.

  • CORPORATE COMMUNICATIONS TRANSLATION

Effective communication is the key to any successful business, whether in your home country or abroad.

From complicated contracts and legal notices to both internal and external marketing and PR materials, such as press releases, company news articles, newsletters, bulletins, flyers, product launches, crisis communications and more, we’re ready to help you cultivate your corporate image the way you want to, at all levels of your business.

  • TECHNICAL TRANSLATION

We are expanding the scope of our technical translation capabilities, with a current focus on translating HVAC, machinery and electronics-related user manuals and brochures from English into a variety of world languages, often provided in tandem with our in-house desktop publishing service, which means that our clients receive properly-formatted materials that are ready for distribution upon delivery.
