According to ISO 17100, legal translations to and from German must be completed by certified translators or specialist legal translators whose native tongue is the target language.
When translating legal documents to and from German there is no room for different interpretations. Legal terms and phrases must be crystal clear in each language. The translators we use specialize in law and know the legal terminology. Many have a bachelor's degree in law, and several are practising lawyers. We translate agreements, judgements, register extracts, insurance documents and other legal documents to and from German for, inter alia, law firms, authorities and companies, and also for private individuals.
Certified translation of legal documents to and from German
In most countries, public authorities and institutions require official documents to be translated by a certified or sworn German translator. Documents that typically require certified translation to and from German include: Adoption documents, diplomas, inventories of death estate, judgements, death certificates, European inheritance certificates, powers of attorney, birth certificates, contracts and agreements, deeds, register statements, register extracts, lawsuits, annual reports, marriage certificates, prenuptial agreements, etc.

Translators who only translate into their native tongue and who specialize in the subject area to which they translate produce better translations because they are on "home ground" both linguistically and terminologically. Here are some of the languages for which we offer expert legal translators to and from German: Arabic, Bosnian, Bulgarian, Chinese, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dari, Dutch, English, Estonian, Finnish, French, Greek, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Latvian, Lituanian, Norwegian, Persian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish, Thai, Tigrinyan, Turkish.
