Doing business over Internet is associated with certain risks. When you assign a project to a freelance translator living in a country thousand miles & several time-zones away, you are kind of "betting" on whether he/she will and is able to finally return a up-to-standard job by due deadline as he/she agreed. Your only chance to win is to find out those who have outstanding qualifications and demonstrated professionalism. Translation is my FULL-TIME PROFESSION, and I treat it seriously as a TRUE BUSINESS - that's how I established happy long-term cooperation with many demanding clients. I believe, you've learnt from my information that I might be your best candidate (if not the only choice) so far.
