Once an exhibit is admitted, the judge, the jury, and opposing counsel all rely on its translation. A disputed translation can turn into a fight of its own. That shapes how we translate exhibits:
When you order with MotaWord, your translation matches your exhibit line for line: every name, date, figure, and handwritten note. Some courts prefer the translation next to the original on the same page. Learn when a side-by-side translation helps.

Read all 1,744 reviewsWe use Motaword to translate documents in our legal cases. The translations are very competent and VERY fast. Recently, I requested that a translation be expedited, and it was done and done well at no extra charge.
We needed a translation done from German to English. We provided them with the original document to translate and they said we would have it the next day. Lo and behold, it was done by the end of the day and our attorneys were satisfied with the translation. And very affordable as well.
I've used MotaWord for multiple legal documents that are important and every time they've provided the fastest service available. It's super convenient and user friendly. Very impressed with the quality of their services and will be using again.
