The Translator Working on Your Legal Document

One of the most critical areas of work done by a translator concerns legal documents. We have a team of specialist translators for legal documents who can provide definitive translations which can be notarised in Latvian if required. This will give them the same legal status as the original German legal document.

Colloquial differences between German and Latvian which may be awkward but acceptable in a tourist brochure could spell disaster in a legal document. Phrases with a clearly defined legal meaning in German may have a completely different one if translated literally into Latvian. The translator must have current knowledge of both German and Latvian law and legal language.

Specialist knowledge on the part of the translator is as important as it is to the writer of the original document. For example, employing a general scientist to translate a mathematical paper risks errors of terminology which may be unnoticeable to lay readers but transparently obvious to Latvian mathematicians. As these are obviously the intended audience, the slightest error would damage your credibility. We will work with you to ensure our translator understands your German legal document and our Latvian translator writes in a style appropriate to your target audience.

Choosing Your German - Latvian Translators

The right choice of German - Latvian translator is critical to your venture. We use professional translators who work only in their mother tongue and in specialist fields. German - Latvian translators will be native Latvian speakers equally fluent in German. Your translated legal document should not give any indication that it was ever written in German at all. A skilled translator will make it read like an original Latvian legal document. This involves such considerations as that German idioms and metaphors should not be translated at all. They should be replaced by the corresponding Latvian phrases. The correct idioms of just five or ten years ago may sound completely out of place today. Language changes by the day, and only Latvian translators continually immersed in Latvian life and culture will be able to keep up with such trends.

German - Latvian Translator Requirements

Your German - Latvian legal document should be concise, accurate, and comprehensible. It is easy to for an unskilled translator to make a word-for-word translation from German to Latvian and produce a legal document which is completely unintelligible. We have all laughed at instructions which have been translated from Latvian to something which bears only a passing resemblance to English. Do not expose your company to the kind of ridicule that use of poor legal documents provokes. The small saving you make on the translator's fees will be only a fraction of what you lose in credibility and sales.
