Legal Contract Translation Services

One Contract, Two Languages, the Same Obligations

A contract only works if both parties read the same obligations. In translation, the risk is rarely a whole clause. It is one defined term translated two ways, or a number that changes.

  • Defined terms are translated the same way in every clause, from the definitions section to the signature page.
  • Governing language clauses are translated precisely, so your counsel can see which version controls.
  • Clause numbering and cross-references are kept, so both versions can be read side by side.
  • Amounts, dates, and party names stay exactly as in the original.

Our translators have subject knowledge in contract law, with editing and proofreading by a second linguist. A certified translation is available when a court or agency needs one.

One Contract, Two Languages, the Same Obligations

MotaWord has a team of 26,000+ translators available to work on the translation of your legal contract, and ordering takes a few clicks. Four steps take your legal contract from upload to a certified English translation:

Estos chicos son muy puntuales y abiertos a la comunicación, lo que genera una gran confianza. Estaba muy nerviosa por enviar algunos documentos legales porque, ya sabes, es mucha información legal. :D Ahora simplemente los envío durante mis descansos para almorzar.
