Legal Language Services

Document Translation

TransPerfect Legal provides legal document translation services, including large-scale multi-language and English document reviews, backed by our certified quality management system and worldwide 24/7 production capabilities. Certified translations can be requested to use for litigation and/or compliance requirements. Draft translations are a more cost-effective solution for content to be reviewed by your internal team only, as well as summary translations which can be used to determine subject-matter or areas of interest. 

Interpretation

Our legal interpreters are available for legal translation services such as depositions, client meetings, legal interpretation, client presentations, expert witness preparation, and more. TransPerfect Legal can also provides scheduling, on-site coordination, and interpreting equipment. Simultaneous interpretation can be scheduled for court room assistance, consecutive interpretation for depositions or arbitrations, and over-the-phone interpretation for cases such as asylum or pro bono. 

Transcription

TransPerfect Legal maintains a global network of experienced court reporters and transcriptionists to provide legal support for your courtroom hearings, arbitrations, and meetings—anywhere in the world. With an online scheduling portal and account representatives available around the clock, TransPerfect ensures that you can book legal transcription services at any time.

Our expansive network of bilingual contract review attorneys—capable of working in over 170 languages—is rigorously tested and continuously trained in up-to-date cultural nuances, trends, and industry-specific terms.

Language Experts

Our legal translation experts quickly identify the language composition and technical requirements of your multilingual cases by using advanced technologies to: note subtle linguistic discrepancies, identify cultural nuances, flag potentially misleading search terms, steer OCR accuracy, and strategically implement human and machine solutions.

TransPerfect Legal regularly hosts, processes, and reviews multi-language data sets. Our team of expert legal consultants and linguistic specialists carry out proprietary workflows, such as automatic language identification and  deduplication, to maximize processing and review efficiencies when handling multi-language documents throughout the e-discovery process.

MULTI-LANGUAGE E-DISCOVERY SOLUTIONS

Language Technology Solutions

Multilingual OCR 

TransPerfect Legal can convert image-based and paper documents into editable, digital characters and then import the results directly into your hosting platform. TransPerfect’s processing team ensures the accurate capture of multi-language text through language-sensitive Optical Character Recognition (OCR), helping to pull hundreds of thousands of documents into review that would have otherwise been overlooked. We can convert high volumes of hard-copy documents into machine-readable text and process them in conjunction with live data files to help you pinpoint where to spend your legal translation dollars most effectively. 

AI and Machine Translation 

AI and Machine Translation (MT) solutions can be efficient and cost-effective for high-volume legal translations and quick turnaround projects. Our linguistic experts will employ the ideal combination of MT, translation memory, and human legal translation and review. Our proprietary MT solutions integrate with TransPerfect's e-discovery management tool, Digital Reef, as well as Relativity and other hosting platforms. The MT process can be customized with the optimal combination of terminology glossaries, translation memory technology, OCR, and post-translation proofreading by human linguists.

Translation Memory

Translation memory (TM) allows text that's been previously translated, edited, and proofread by qualified human linguists to be stored and leveraged for all future projects. TM technology dramatically reduces translation costs by leveraging previously translated content: the typical TM savings in year one are 20–25%, with the savings growing up to 50% in years two, three, and beyond. Your TM will continue to grow with each project, and significantly expedite turnaround times.

TransCEND, our proprietary, web-based application, enables corporate legal departments to securely file, exchange, host, and share legal translation documents in a protected environment.
