Our areas of expertise
Translations and interpreting in English and Italian for individuals, companies, and professionals.
Official translations comprise a broad category. Not all official translations are legal or sworn. It's important to differentiate them to avoid confusion.
Legal translations focus on legal documents, requiring expertise in legal language. They ensure that the original legal meaning is preserved intact, which is essential for contracts and notarial deeds.
Sworn translations, on the other hand, are certified accurate by a sworn translator. This type of translation is usually accompanied by an official oath of fidelity to the original document.
Here's a summary of the main differences:
-
Official Translations: A broad category, including certified and sworn translations.
-
Legal Translations: Specific to legal documents.
-
Sworn translations: Translations sworn in court before a judicial officer.
Understanding these differences helps you choose the right service for your needs, ensuring the validity and correct use of the translated document.
We stand out in official document translation and legal interpreting. Our professional and personalized approach ensures high-quality results.
Our team of experts is highly qualified and has extensive industry experience, allowing us to meet our clients' specific needs.
We offer a wide range of language services. Among these is certified translation, also known as sworn translation. This service ensures the legal validity of translations in official contexts. If the translation is intended for international use, we take care of legalization (or apostille service for countries that are signatories to the Hague Convention). We can also provide notarized translation services, ensuring that all translations meet the legal requirements for international use.
