I have a set of professional / legal documents in English that must read naturally to a French-speaking business audience. I’m not after a line-by-line literal rendering; instead, I want the text adapted to standard French business style while preserving every legal nuance and reference.

Your task
• Translate the full content from English into French, keeping original formatting, headings, tables and any exhibits intact.
• Choose terminology that would be immediately understood by French professionals (e.g., “contrat de service” vs. “service agreement”) without drifting from the source meaning.
• Flag any idioms, jurisdiction-specific clauses or ambiguous wording you feel needs my confirmation before finalising.

Deliverables
1. A clean, publish-ready French version in the same file format (Word/PDF as supplied).
2. A tracked-changes or bilingual version so I can spot-check choices easily.
3. A brief glossary of key legal terms you standardised across the document.

I will share the files upon award and would like a quick turnaround, so please indicate your realistic timeframe and any CAT tools (SDL Trados, MemoQ, Wordfast, etc.) you use for consistency. Absolute confidentiality is expected; an NDA is available if required.
