I have a legal document in English that must be rendered accurately into German. Because the text is legally binding, precision in terminology, consistent style, and respect for the original structure are essential. I will supply the file in Word; I need the completed German version returned in the same layout, ready for filing and client review.
Your background in German-language legal translation is the deciding factor. Please share any similar work you can disclose, along with your turnaround time for approximately 3,000 words (the current estimate). A short excerpt from the brief may be provided for a paid test so I can see how you handle references to statutes, clauses, and specific contractual phrases.
The deliverable is simple: one impeccably translated German document that reads as though it were drafted originally in that language, free of machine-translation artifacts and formatted exactly like the source. I will handle final legal review once your draft passes my internal quality check; therefore, an editable file is required.
Confidentiality is mandatory—kindly confirm you are comfortable signing a standard NDA before receiving the material. If you have questions about context or preferred terminology, feel free to ask up front so we keep revisions minimal and the project on schedule.
