Legal and Corporate Translation

Legal and corporate translation of contracts, articles of association and company documents, with terminological accuracy, consistent wording and professional judgement. Each text is approached with its purpose and context in mind to accurately reflect its content and scope in the target language.

Professional approach

I work with powers of attorney, commercial agreements, corporate records, registry certificates and other documents relating to business transactions and professional matters.

A power of attorney and a sale and purchase agreement may share similar terminology, but they serve different purposes. Before translating, I consider the parties involved, the document’s intended use and its specific context.

Corporate documentation

Translation of documents relating to a company’s structure, operations and decision-making. Every detail matters, as it may affect internal arrangements and agreements between the parties.

Common areas:

  • Articles of association and structural changes

  • Minutes and resolutions of management bodies

  • Mergers, demergers and reorganisations

  • Capital increases

  • Company registry certificates

Each document is considered in light of its function and its implications for the parties involved.

Contractual Instruments

Contract translations must preserve the structure, scope and legal meaning of the original document. Every clause serves a specific purpose that must be accurately reflected in the target language.

Key elements:

1. Contractual clauses and obligations

The wording determines the rights, obligations, exceptions and mechanisms applicable between the parties.

2. Liability and guarantees

These provisions establish responsibilities, limitations, guarantees and the consequences of non-performance.

3. Conditions and legal effects

These terms affect the validity of the agreement and the creation or termination of legal obligations.

4. Performance and termination

The text must accurately reflect performance requirements, penalties and possible grounds for termination.

Industry sectors

Each field has its own terminology, technical references and communication practices. I have worked with documents across a wide range of industries and adapt each translation to the specific requirements of the project.

Common areas:

Construction and engineering

Industry and manufacturing

International trade and logistics

Healthcare and pharmaceutical regulation

Agriculture and agribusiness

Corporate communications

Digital localisation and e-commerce

Tourism and hospitality

International sports sponsorship

Technical publishing projects

Document consistency

In legal or corporate transactions, several documents may form part of the same process. Maintaining consistent terminology and concepts across them helps prevent contradictions, discrepancies and misinterpretations.

Special attention is given to:

Professional validation of AI-generated texts

I review texts generated by machine translation or AI when the content requires precise terminology, clarity and reliability for legal or professional use.

Comparison of bilingual versions

Review of contractual alignment

Detection of terminological inconsistencies

Review of drafts and preliminary texts
