Our process

How a Chicago Translation Is Prepared

  1. Consultation

    We discuss the document, the target language and any specific requirements before work begins.

  2. Translator Assignment

    The project goes to a translator with experience in the language pair and subject area.

  3. Translation and Proofreading

    The document is translated with close attention to detail, and a proofreader checks it for accuracy and consistency.

  4. Final Review and Delivery

    The completed translation gets a final review and is delivered in the agreed format.

Apostille

Documents Used Abroad

  1. Apostille

    If a document issued in Illinois will be used in another country, the receiving authority may ask for an apostille as well as a translation.

  2. Translation

    We translate the document together with its apostille, so the authority reading the file sees every stamp and signature in English.

  3. Delivery

    The apostille and the certified translation are delivered together, so the whole file goes through one contact.

Questions About Translation in Chicago

What Types of Documents Do You Translate in Chicago?
We translate legal contracts, medical records, academic transcripts, financial statements and other documents. Send us your documents and we will confirm the details in your quote.
What Is a Certified Translation?
A certified translation comes with the translator’s signed statement that the translation is complete and accurate. The organization that receives the document decides whether it meets its own requirements.
Is a Certified Translation the Same as a Notarized One?
No. Certification is the translator’s signed statement about the translation. Notarization is a separate step, and it is not part of the certified translation.
What Is an Apostille?
An apostille is a certificate for a document that will be used in another country. The receiving authority may ask for one alongside a translation. Ask us about the requirements when you request a quote.
