Legal translation requires the translator to have not only superb knowledge of the source and target languages, but also corresponding expertise in Law, since the linguist will need to accurately translate the concepts of one legal system into another language. The task is rendered even more difficult given that a concept common to one system may be non-existent in another country’s legal system, and it is the job of the translator to adequately convey the meaning of the source document whatever the situation.

In addition, “legalese” is notoriously difficult to understand as it is, let alone to translate into another tongue. Legal terms must be strictly worded and defined, thus to attain a high-quality translation a linguist should have a relevant background, otherwise he may be simply unable to cope with the task.

For this very reason only properly qualified experts are employed by London-Moscow Translations to tackle the translation of legal documents. These are outstanding professionals whose expertise has helped us make legal translation the mainstay of the services we provide.

Every time you place an order for a legal translation we are fully aware of the responsibility we assume. Poor quality translation may lead to dramatic losses, both tangible and intangible, which is absolutely unacceptable.

Confidentiality, too, is never neglected at London-Moscow Translations. Our standard service contract contains a special article dedicated to non-disclosure of the information we translate or interpret. If you request that a separate confidentiality agreement be signed, we will be happy to do it for you.
