Translation and Proof-Reading

You have a document written in German which you need translated into English and preferably by yesterday! Everyone knows the problem, especially the translator. Well, help is at hand.   Depending on the length, I can have the document back in your mailbox within 24 hours.  However the more notice that can be given, the longer the documents can be and the cheaper it is for you. I have over ten years of experience as a translator; working on all kinds of texts from websites and exhibition catalogues to literature.

Or perhaps you have already written something in English but are not quite sure if it is exactly how a native speaker would say it.  To avoid embarrassing and potentially costly mistakes, send it to be proof-read, which will make sure that it is written correctly.
