PRECISION THE LAW DEMANDS
In legal translation, a single mistranslated term can change the meaning of a clause—and the outcome of a case. Locstars delivers legal translation services through translators who understand legal systems, terminology, and the precision the law demands, in Arabic and ten other languages.
Arabic-speaking jurisdictions blend civil law and Sharia-influenced concepts; English-speaking ones run on common law. Terms like “consideration” or “trust” have no one-to-one Arabic equivalent, and forcing one creates ambiguity a counterparty can exploit. Our legal translators render the legal effect, not just the words—and flag any term that needs a drafting decision.
Dual-language contracts are standard practice in the Gulf. We deliver parallel-column formatting with clause-by-clause alignment, consistent defined terms across both languages, and a terminology sheet your lawyers can review.
✔ Specialist legal translators — trained in the terminology of both legal systems
✔ Layout preserved — mirrors the structure and formatting of the original
✔ Strict confidentiality — privileged material handled accordingly, NDAs on request
Do you translate legal documents for submission to courts and authorities?
Whether a document is accepted is decided by the body receiving it, not by us. What we produce is a complete translation by a translator who specializes in legal drafting, in a layout that mirrors the original — so tell us which court or authority it is going to and we will confirm beforehand what we will deliver. See our Translation of Official Documents page.
Can you handle bilingual contracts?
Yes, including parallel-column formatting with clause-by-clause alignment and consistent defined terms in both languages.
Are my documents kept confidential?
Yes. Legal files are shared only with the assigned translators, under strict confidentiality, with NDAs available on request.
Can you work under litigation deadlines?
Yes. We regularly deliver litigation material on rush timelines, keep any review steps you order in place, and confirm the delivery date in writing with the quote.
Which language pairs do you cover for legal work?
Arabic to and from all ten of our languages, led by English, French, Chinese, German, and Turkish—the pairs that dominate cross-border legal work in the region.
Contracts, judgments, and filings translated by specialists who know both legal systems.
