Livia LungulescuAssociate Attorney, Romanovsky Law Offices

We needed help with a unique project: translate 45 words with complex meaning into 22 languages, some of which aren’t really spoken anymore. The team at Language Connections was eager to help, enthusiastically found solutions to problems that arose, and completed the project with surprisingly fast turnaround.

Language Connections enabled us to really connect with our new clients through translation and publishing of contracts, brochures, and other materials, as well as interpreting during negotiations.

Language Connections has provided us with a very good first impression and has not let us down! They worked on a seminar with a large number of participants, which demanded simultaneous translation of postings as quickly as possible and with great command of French. We were impressed by the quality of their work, flexibility to work long hours as needed to complete all translations on time, and their high level of computer savvy.

Mayssa el KhazenProgram Coordinator, Management Sciences for Health

I am extremely satisfied with Language Connections’ high level of responsiveness and quality, they have done a superior job in translating my academic articles on environmental development and law from Arabic to English. I am confident that these translated articles will give the English-speaking world more insight into the steps necessary to ensure successful environmental development in Iraq.
