High-end bespoke translation

We deliver high-quality translations tailored to your individual requirements. We are most familiar with and experienced in the translation of academic texts, having made this text-type our specialism from the beginning of our business. We work closely with our clients to ensure we meet their needs, and are proud to have developed close long-term client relationships over the years.

The right team for your text

We specialise in the translation of academic texts, particularly those in the fields of sociology, psychology, and study of religions. We are also happy to take on work from other fields, as long as we are certain we can deliver a high-quality translation. If your text falls outside our fields of expertise, we will happily refer you to a trusted colleague with the right expertise.

Our translation process

At the beginning of any project, we will spend time reading the source text and collecting information to ensure that we have fully understood the purpose of the translation. We will listen carefully to your personal requirements, and may draw up a translation brief. Your text will be translated by a native speaker of the target language who is knowledgeable about the subject matter. It will then be reviewed by a second linguist who, like the translator, is a specialist in both languages as well as the subject of the translation. The text then goes back to the translator for a final check.

After we send you the translated document, we make it our policy to follow up and ensure that you are satisfied with the work. Don’t be afraid to ask questions. We will have thought carefully about our translation decisions and will be happy to explain them to you.

Pricing

Having looked at the text to be translated and asked any relevant questions, we will issue a quote for the project as a whole (including VAT and surcharges where applicable). Quotes and estimates are valid for 14 days.

Our standard practice is to charge a non-refundable deposit of 25% of the total translation fee on acceptance of the quote. The remainder will be paid on delivery of the translation. We have a minimum charge of €100 (excl. VAT). Surcharges may apply for urgent work or non-editable documents.
