Translation for legal professionals

Legal professionals turn to Bowne for our specific legal and financial market expertise and for our ability to craft flexible and scalable solutions to meet their most demanding requirements.

Challenge:
A litigation lawyer needs large-volume legal documents translated in an exceptionally short time frame. The lawyer’s requirements include:

• 3,000 pages of discovery documents translated from Russian into English
• Minimal project assistance by the lawyer and her staff
• Near-perfect translations that need little proofing
• 30-day turn around time for completed translations

Solution:
Bowne immediately assigns a project manager with experience in managing large legal translations and a linguist is sent on-site to help determine which documents really need to be translated. A search is conducted in Bowne's resource database which details the native language, expertise and previous performance rating of more than 1,000 linguists. Translators with legal backgrounds are located and assigned to the project. A quick-turn translation process is designed that includes critical mileposts and quality assurance steps.

Result:
Bowne is able to deliver excellent-quality translations while saving critical time in the translation process. By taking the burden of translation off the lawyer's shoulders, Bowne helps the lawyer focus on what she does best: winning the case.
