Certified legal contract translation services
In a cross-border deal, one misread clause can cost far more than the translation ever would. We certify your contract at $24.10 per page, return it within 48 hours, and guarantee it is accepted by courts and partners abroad.
A contract is only as enforceable as its translation is accurate
A contract spells out who owes what to whom. Cross a border or a language line, and a single mistranslated clause can change an obligation, void a protection, or hand the other side an argument you never intended to give them. The agreement you signed in good faith means nothing if the version in front of the court or the partner says something else.
Immigration filings, court cases, and international business deals routinely call for certified translations of legal contracts, since full legal recognition hinges on getting every word exact. The danger is in the fine print: a term that drifts in meaning, a layout that no longer matches the original, or the absence of a certificate of accuracy that makes the document official.
When rights and obligations are on the line, precision is not optional.

I purchased a translation on Friday and expected a 24-hour turnaround but also ordered a notary not knowing it wasn't part of the estimated time. Unsurprisingly I needed it immediately. I emailed support and within a few hours, it was completely signed and notarized! Hats off to y'all!
Amazing service! My translation was done in 2 hours. All done on time, the right way, and the price was very good! Highly recommend.
I reached out to them last Friday for an emergency translation. They got back within the hour. ETA was 24 hours. Since it was a Friday, I expected Monday, but it was completed on Saturday. Accurate and on time, great job!

Frequently Asked Questions
Find clear answers to the questions people most often ask about working with us. See how the workflow runs, what it costs, how long it takes, where documents are accepted, which notarization choices exist, and the way finished files reach you.
Does my legal contract need a certified translation, or will a standard one do?
If the contract is going to a court, a government agency, a regulator, or any place where its enforceability turns on the translation, order certified at $24.10 per page. The signed certificate of accuracy is what those reviewers ask for.
If you only need the contract for internal review, early negotiations, or to brief a colleague, a professional translation gives you the same professional quality at a lower cost. When you are not sure, certified covers you for every use.
How do you keep the legal terminology in my contract from drifting in meaning?
Your contract is handled by translators who work in legal language every day and know the contract terms and clause structures of both the source and target legal systems. Each term is matched to its established legal equivalent rather than translated word by guesswork.
When a concept has no clean equivalent in the other legal system, we add a short explanatory note so the original obligation, right, or condition still reads the way you intended.
Will a translated contract be accepted as evidence in court?
Yes. Our certified contract translations are accepted by U.S. courts, international tribunals, and government agencies as an accurate representation of the original agreement, backed by the signed certificate of accuracy and our 100% acceptance guarantee.
The translation does not create new legal obligations. Those come from the contract you signed. What it does is give a court or authority a faithful, recognized version of the terms in their language.
Is my confidential contract and its business terms kept private?
Yes. Every contract is handled under strict confidentiality. Files move through secure transfer, the translators assigned to your project work under non-disclosure agreements, and your trade secrets, pricing, and proprietary terms stay protected from upload to delivery.
After the project is finished, your files are stored securely and permanently deleted unless you ask us to keep them.
Can you translate complex contracts like M&A, licensing, or NDAs?
Yes. We translate the full range of contract types, including employment agreements, vendor and service contracts, licensing and intellectual property agreements, mergers and acquisitions, real estate contracts, partnership agreements, and non-disclosure agreements.
Each type is handled with attention to its own legal vocabulary and industry context, so a licensing clause and an indemnity clause both read correctly.
How is my contract priced and how fast can it be ready?
Certified contract translation is $24.10 per page, where a page is about 250 words or one standard letter-size page. Long or unusually technical contracts may qualify for a custom quote, which you can request before you order.
Standard delivery is within 48 hours. For a closing date or a litigation deadline, expedited service with same-day or overnight delivery is available. Tell us your deadline and we will confirm the timing.
