In China, about five percent of the disputes between Chinese and foreign companies are due to errors in legal translation, as mentioned in a 2012 article from ChinaDaily.com.
Potential outcomes from poor translation of source documents can be:
- Inaccurate evidence
- Wrongful convictions
- Jeopardising reputations, finance – even lives
Translation services and the law are very different disciplines, but the word of the law is the word of the law, whether it’s in a court bundle, a contract, or a witness statement and it must be accurate in any language.
Ensuring that legal terms are correct, in the language they are being translated into is vital.
