2. Legal translation

Legal translation

What documents are called legal?Obviously those are documents drawn up on the legal subject. But that is quite vague. To be more specific legal documents are the following ones:

  • Contracts, agreements and treaties both private (lease or loan agreements, marriage certificate, labour agreement, sponsorship agreement) and commercial (insurance, service contract, partnership contract, association agreement);

  • Memoranda and legal opinions. Those are quite hard to deal with, since mistranslation of lawyer’s words means misunderstanding of the law, and can you imagine what consequences that may entail? That is why the translator of such a document shall be sound on the law including the law of the country the language of which he translates from;

  • Legal entity foundation and statutory documents, i.e. specific reference books of company operation fundamentals, its internal organization (statutory documents), conditions of cooperation with other companies (foundation agreements);

  • Regulatory legal acts and language of laws. Good knowledge of legislation of the country where the law was adopted is required because there may be niceties therein that matter very much;

  • Bank documents, i.e. advices, money orders, references, payments, credit certificates, bank agreements and suchlike.
