DELIVERING CERTIFIED LEGAL TRANSLATIONS
If you’re having an official document translated, you may well be asked to get it certified before it’s accepted by an authority or body. You may require standard, notarisation or legalisation certification of your legal translations. As an approved, corporate member of the professional translation body, the Association of Translation Companies (ATC), Dialogue is authorised to certify all categories of legal translations.

Types of Certified Legal Translation
Standard
For general or official documents which need to be presented to academic institutions or to prove identity or marital status. This is often, but not always, sufficient for birth or divorce certificates.
Notarisation
For official documents and deeds requested by public authorities, government bodies and courts. This is a declaration by the translator which is made in writing and on oath (sworn) in front of a Notary Public that the translation is, to the best of the translator’s knowledge, complete and accurate.
Legalisation
For documents to be presented to overseas authorities outside the UK (e.g. office relocation or work applications). To legalise ‘notarised certification’, the FCO needs to apostille it and it may then require an embassy seal.

Legal Translation FAQs
Any legal documentation requiring presentation to foreign authorities e.g. marriage applications or office relocation notifications will need certifying through notarisation by a solicitor and an apostille from the FCO.
Many of our translators have professional legal backgrounds and have since moved into translation; others have studied law but now specialise in legal translation. All are experienced in different specialist legal fields.
All legal translations go through rigorous ISO 17100:2015-approved QA processes involving three linguists to ensure absolute accuracy: translation, proofing and proofchecking. Accuracy and reliability are guaranteed.
