Do you only translate legal documents from Poland and the UK?
No, while I specialize in translating legal documents from Poland and the UK, I also have experience working with documents from Ireland and the United States.
In the US, I’ve translated legal texts from states with large Polish populations, such as New York and Michigan. I have experience in helping people who deal with such issues as inheritance, marital issues etc. I even had some requests for translation of old correspondence etc.
My personal experience of spending nearly two years in the US (over five different stays) during my university studies has given me a deeper understanding of American culture and legal systems, which helps me ensure accuracy and cultural relevance in my translations.
Let me know if this works or needs further refinement! Enjoy your lunch!
