Common questions

Which documents can I order as a legal document?
Powers of attorney, wills, court decisions, judgments and orders, affidavits, statutory declarations and notarial deeds. Divorce decrees and contracts have their own pages — please order a divorce decree or a contract there.
My document has many pages. How is it priced?
One order covers the whole document. The price is calculated in standard pages (350 words): every page with content counts as at least one standard page, a very dense page can count as more, and blank pages don't count. The base price covers a short document; each further standard page is added at a fixed rate for your language pair. The exact total is shown and confirmed before you pay. Very long documents cannot be priced automatically — the order form tells you when that is the case, and you can contact us for a quote instead.
Parts of my document are handwritten, or I only have a scan. Is that a problem?
No. Handwritten entries, signatures, stamps and seals are rendered in the translation, and anything we cannot read is marked as illegible rather than guessed. A clear scan or photo of every page is enough: PDF, JPG or PNG all work. We translate exactly what we receive, so make sure every page is complete and readable.
Is my document kept confidential?
Always. All documents are encrypted at rest and in transit, only your assigned translator can see the original, and your documents are permanently deleted 30 days after delivery. We never train AI on your data.
Can you translate a German legal document into English?
Yes. We translate legal documents from German into English and from English into German, and from Arabic, Turkish, French, Spanish, Russian, Chinese or Polish into German or English.
Is the translation legally binding?
A certified translation confirms that the translation is complete and faithful to the original. It does not replace the original, which remains the legal document. The translator translates the document as it is written and does not check, explain or give advice on its content — for questions about the document itself, please ask a lawyer or notary.
Do you refund if a court or office rejects the translation?
No. The fee covers the production and certification of the translation by a court-sworn translator. Once delivered, it is non-refundable — including if a court, notary or office later refuses it. If the rejection is caused by an error on our part, we correct it free of charge and your statutory rights apply. Final acceptance rests with the receiving body.
