7 Brands Forecast for the Legal Translation Market

Legal Translation Market


7 Brands has been one of the choices for a growing number of Law Offices in the United States. The company offers legal translation in several languages, being Spanish legal translations the majority of its legal services. The company, famous for the slogan “translation in more than 400 languages”, is investing heavily in Human Resources to increase its participation in this segment.

Legal Translation is a much sought market. Because of the sensitivity and importance of the information to be translated, clients are more willing to pay a premium for quality legal translation services. Therefore, most of the large translation companies invest in efforts to have a higher penetration in this niche.


Legal Translators


Although the higher prices are an attractive for new translation companies in the Legal Translation arena, the “per word” rates charged by the Legal Translators may be an inhibitor. The Legal Translators are generally better paid than other translation professionals. They are always in high demand, and the apparently unbalance between demand and offer results in constantly increasing rates. The legal translators may be divided in two different groups: the newcomers, that charge less, but do not offer an experience long enough to be used by leading translation companies, and the second group, the seasoned and experienced translators, offering a first class translation while charging the highest rates in the market.

Patent Translation


One of the most popular subcategories inside the Legal Translation realm is the Patent translation. 7 Brands is adopting the Patent translations as one of its specialties, “second only to general legal document translations”, according to Camila Saunier, 7 Brands Marketing VP. “A Patent translation job is usually more complex than other legal translations, since it requires a comprehensive and detailed understanding of the filling rules in the target country: a single bad word choice may ruin a multi-million-dollar patent!” – says Ms. Saunier.

Expert Translators


If you are looking for an expert translator with more than 10 years in their field of expertise, we have the right professional for your job. Our translators are not "generic translators" - they carry years of experience in their specific industries as executives or consultants, recognized certifications, and years of experience in translation. An expert translator is what you need, when sensitive and confidential documents need to be translated. There is no space for poor translations, security breaches or potential deadline missing.

Quality Translations


We believe that a quality translation should go further than accuracy. It needs to be delivered on time, supported by an efficient customer service, and cost you a fair price. We also believe that you should get a quality translation - always. At 7 Brands, you will count on a seasoned and well paid team of translators that will not leave your job to be done at the 11th hour. Your job will be considered the unique priority for our translators - from the minute he receives the assignment to the minute he delivers the translation to the editor.

Certified Translators


Although a certification is not enough to guarantee the quality of a translation, certified translators has at least went through a few examinations to prove their skills. Certified translators are also able to certify their translations to be used in court and other American or foreign deparments. Most of our translators are certified translators carrying the most relevant certifications in the world. Our certification records are available upon request.

Legal Translations


Quality legal translations are not a one-man show. Legal translations envolve one single knowledge field, but two different systems. Imagine how many differences one will find in the US Law System and the Brazil Law System. A quality Legal translation will be provided by a team with knowledge in both the source legal system and in the target legal system as well.
