Our language services in the legal area

Express service

KERN's language teams are available 24 hours a day. Our Express Service allows you to keep to the tightest of deadlines – completely irrespective of the scope and complexity of the texts.

Certification of patent translations

If a certification of your patent application translation is required, KERN can provide this service using a sworn translator or via a Translator's Certificate at any time.

Interpreting

Our certified court interpreters interpret into two or more official languages, for example, in:

  • Proceedings in the German federal courts
  • Meetings in advance of court hearings and during witness accounts
  • Police interviews
  • Interrogations, hearings, judicial and extra-judicial mediation

Document evaluation

KERN language teams, made up of qualified translators and interpreters, are specialised in the appraisal and inspection of documents on-site and will work with you on every page to ensure that the relevant documents are prepared for a mandate. We will assist you in the compilation of a mandate-specific glossary of technical terms, so that consistent terminology is always used in your mandating documentation and affidavits.

Confidentiality

The confidential handling of your documents is a matter of course for KERN.

Machine translation solutions for legal and contractual texts - a cost-efficient solution

Are you looking for a way to have your legal and contractual texts translated quickly and cost-effectively?

Our machine translation solution Mt4client™ could be right for you! This means you benefit from software that can be tailored to your needs - for example, terminology databases can be integrated into the system to ensure consistent translations. You don’t have to worry about your data when using MT4client™. The data in the MT solution isn’t available to third parties and, unlike freely available translation tools, is secure.

For internal communications purposes or short-lived email traffic, simply making use of MT4client™ is perfectly fine. For complex legal documents, we would recommend extensive post editing. That way legal and contractual texts can be intensively reworked, which ensures quality.

  • Urgent jobs can be completed even quicker
  • Individual requirements for technical terminology are taken into account
  • Data protection Secure handling of sensitive data
