When a case turns on a single clause, the wording has to be exact. We deliver certified and sworn legal translation of court orders, contracts, affidavits and family‑law files — prepared by qualified, accredited legal translators and accepted by the Courts Service of Ireland, Irish solicitors, the ISD and the Department of Foreign Affairs. Every document is handled by a native, human specialist — never machine software — and returned with a signed certification statement, official stamp and date. Same‑day and express options available when your court or immigration deadline is tight.

Our legal translations accepted across Ireland & beyond
There is no single government translator register in Ireland — so acceptance rests entirely on the credentials behind the work. Here is what turns an ordinary translation into a legally usable one.
A legal translation is only valid when the person reading it — a judge, a caseworker, a registrar or a solicitor — can trust that not one word has shifted meaning. A translation becomes certified when a qualified, accredited translator attaches a signed statement confirming the rendering is complete and precise, together with an official stamp, signature and date.
That certification is what makes the difference. It tells the receiving authority who translated the document, what their qualifications are, and that they stand behind its accuracy. For most immigration and administrative uses this certified format is exactly what is required — and it is the standard we apply to every legal order as a baseline, never an optional add‑on you have to ask for.
Because the wording of a contract, judgment or affidavit carries real legal weight, we treat every file as a compliant, professional legal document from the first line — not a rough draft to be tidied up later.
Personal or corporate, one page or a full bundle — your file lands with a translator who works in that field of law every day.
Rulings, decrees and civil‑bill documents rendered with the exact legal force of the original.
Court accepted →Commercial contracts, leases and terms translated so both parties are bound by identical wording.
Business & corporate →Prepared in dual language where needed, ready for notarisation and DFA authentication.
Notary ready →Decrees, separation agreements and custody orders for court filing or re‑marriage abroad.
Family law →Verified translations with a sworn declaration on affidavit when the court requires it.
Sworn available →Garda‑vetting and foreign criminal‑record certificates for immigration and employment.
Immigration accepted →Estate and inheritance documents handled with the discretion sensitive matters deserve.
Confidential →Inter‑country adoption files and guardianship orders to the standard courts expect.
Court accepted →Company registration, board minutes and compliance documents for corporate legal teams.
Corporate →Every legal document is translated by a native, qualified specialist in that language pair — so your court orders, contracts, affidavits and certificates read precisely, whatever the source language.
Ordering the wrong level costs you time and a resubmission. This is the plain‑English difference — and when each one actually applies.
A signed, stamped statement of accuracy from a qualified, accredited translator.
The certification is sworn before a solicitor or Commissioner for Oaths as an affidavit.
A notary public certifies the signature, then the DFA apostille legalises it internationally.

📩 Your final price is confirmed in a written quotation before any work begins — because it depends on the type of legal document, its length and the certification you need. Every figure shown here is a transparent starting price, never a hidden or per-word surprise.
Every certified legal document we've submitted has been accepted — and if any authority ever queries one, we put it right free of charge.
Courts reject software output. Every legal translation is done manually by a native specialist and independently reviewed — precise from the first clause.
No anonymous stamps. Every translation carries a qualified, ITIA-affiliated, accredited translator's name — the accountability Irish courts rely on.
Hearings and filing dates don't move. Standard turnaround is 24–48 hours, with fast, express and same-day options when a court date is close.
If any Irish authority queries a document, we revise and reissue at no cost — your certified translation isn't finished until it's accepted.
Legal files are sensitive. Yours are encrypted, access-controlled, processed in Ireland and deleted after delivery, fully GDPR-compliant.
