The risks of inaccurate legal translations

When you have your legal documents professionally translated, you save time and resources. You make sure that your processes proceed as smoothly as possible and that your reputation remains intact.

Work With Legal NAATI Chinese Translators That Lawyers Trust
Whether it’s translating documents or in the courtroom, your choice of legal translators can make or break your matter:

Accuracy: Mistakes can have far-reaching consequences for you and your client; the wording must be accurately rendered and also complete and properly certified.
Expertise: Comprehensive knowledge of the legal system; command of legal terms; understanding of the legal structures in Australia; excellent interpreting skills; and awareness of how to work with a lawyer – you should demand nothing less.
Trust: There are too many instances of poor translation impacting legal work and court outcomes. Using inexperienced, unqualified or machine translations will likely result in mistakes, aborted cases and costly reparations, not to mention reputation.

Be confident that your translation will meet your and your client’s needs and stand up in court.

How much do you charge for your translation services?

It depends on the amount and type of content, the subject and the urgency. Please note our minimum fee is $165.00 (inc GST). For interpreting, our fees are based on hours or days.

Can you translate WeChat audio files from Mandarin to English

Yes. More and more legal cases rely on accurate translation not just of WeChat text messages, but also voice recordings. The best approach is for us to transcribe the recordings and then proceed with an accurate, thorough translation. This is then certified for the court.

How long will it take to translate my documents?

It depends on the content and number of files. With our in-house team, we can turn translations around on the same day or overnight. It really depends when you need the translation. We are available 24/7.
