About me
I hold the German State Examination in Law and the German State Examination for Translators specialising in Legal.

I have practised law as legal counsel of a property investment company in Berlin.

I then moved to London and acquired an LL.B. and the Postgraduate Diploma in Legal Practice (Legal Practice Course) from the College of Law London Moorgate. I now work as full-time translator specialising in legal and financial translation services.

Please have a look at a sample of some of my recent work under 'Display standardised information' and then 'Portfolio'.

Knowledge of the German and the British legal system and the correct interpretation of legal terminology are the prerequisites of a quality legal translation. I use individual client glossaries of preferred legal terms to achieve consistency of vocabulary and as with all my translation work, systems are in place to ensure confidentiality.

My clients count amongst the largest legal translation providers in the world. My specialist areas include:

• Intellectual Property Law, including Patents and Licensing;
• Corporate Law;
• Property Law;
• Contracts (e.g. distribution, agency, sale of goods);
• Litigation;
• Family Law and
• Correspondence.

I can take on almost every assignment, except for technical tax or insurance-related documents.

I regularly meet tight deadlines and can provide first-class translations from and into German and English whilst offering most competitive rates and a fast turnaround.
