Who it's for / what we translate
Legal and business documents don’t tolerate a mistranslated clause. This page answers the two things that actually decide whether you order: can the nuance survive, and what will it cost before you commit budget to it.
What we translate
- Commercial contracts
- Terms & conditions
- Non-disclosure agreements
- Corporate filings and compliance documents
- Tender submissions
- Articles of association
- Internal policy documents
- Correspondence with authorities or counterparties
Typical buyer
An owner, in-house counsel, or operations lead at a small or mid-sized business operating in or trading with the DACH region, working to a filing or signing deadline.
What's included
- 01 A specialist translator working in your subject area — commercial, corporate or compliance.
- 02 A project term list, so the same term is translated the same way on every page of a document set.
- 03 A second linguist’s review, standard on every legal order — not an optional upgrade here.
- 04 Confidentiality as standard practice; an NDA signed on request before we see your file.
How this service works
- 01
Send the file
Send us the contract or document set. Ask for an NDA first if your internal process requires one — we’ll sign before we open the file.
- 02
Terminology set
We build a term list from your document so key vocabulary — party names, defined terms, clause references — stays identical across every page.
- 03
Two-linguist review
A second legal-fluent linguist checks the translation against the source before it’s finalised. This is standard process here, not a paid extra.
- 04
Delivery
You receive the finished document, formatted to match your original layout as closely as the file format allows.

Quality & handling
Legal work goes to a translator with genuine subject familiarity, not a generalist rotated onto an unfamiliar account. A second linguist independently reviews every legal order before delivery — stated here as our process, not as a certification we hold. Your document is treated as confidential by default; we’ll sign an NDA before we open the file if your business requires one.
Language pairs
Standard rate applies to Tier A (EN↔DE). Tier B and C pairs carry a multiplier; Tier D pairs are quoted individually.
| Tier | Pairs | Multiplier |
|---|---|---|
| Tier A | EN ↔ DE | Base rate (×1.00) |
| Tier B | DE ↔ FR, DE ↔ ES, DE ↔ IT, DE ↔ NL | ×1.15 |
| Tier C | DE ↔ PL, DE ↔ TR, DE ↔ RU, DE ↔ PT | ×1.30 |
| Tier D | All other pairs | Quote only |
Legal & Business Translation FAQ
It survives when the translator understands the subject matter and the terminology stays consistent — that’s what the term list and the second-linguist review are for. We won’t claim zero-risk; we will tell you plainly how the risk is managed.

Included. It’s the default process on every legal order, priced into the €0.17/word rate — not a checkbox you have to add.
We build a project term list from your first document and apply it across every subsequent file in the same engagement, so a defined term reads the same way in page 2 and page 200.
