TRANSLATOR & INTERPRETER
Certified linguistic services
As a sworn translator and interpreter in English and French, I provide certified linguistic services for individuals, legal professionals, public authorities, and businesses requiring accurate, confidential, and officially recognised communication. Appointed to work with the Court of Appeal, I am authorised to produce translations that are legally valid for administrative, judicial, and official purposes, and to provide interpreting support in formal settings where precision and neutrality are essential.
I specialise in the certified translation of official documents from French into English and from English into French. These include civil status documents such as birth, marriage, and death certificates; identity and nationality papers; academic diplomas and transcripts; employment records; contracts; court documents; medical reports; insurance paperwork; and property related documentation. Each certified translation is prepared with strict attention to terminology, formatting, and legal equivalence, and includes the required stamp and certification so that it can be accepted by courts, notaires, government offices, universities, and other official institutions in France and internationally.

Professional interpreting services
In addition to written translation, I provide professional interpreting services for official meetings and procedures. I regularly assist English speaking and French speaking clients during property transactions with notaires, ensuring that all contractual terms, legal obligations, and financial details are clearly understood before documents are signed. My role is to facilitate transparent communication so that clients can proceed with confidence when buying or selling property in France.
I also provide interpreting support for legal and administrative appointments, including police interviews, sworn statements, and other formal proceedings where an authorised interpreter may be required. In these situations, I work with complete impartiality and confidentiality, ensuring that communication is accurate and that all parties can fully understand and participate in the process. My approach combines linguistic precision with calm professionalism, which is particularly important in sensitive or high pressure environments.
With extensive experience living and working in both the United Kingdom and France, I bring not only bilingual fluency but also deep cultural understanding of both legal and administrative systems. This enables me to anticipate potential misunderstandings, clarify procedural language, and ensure that translations and interpretations reflect the intended legal meaning rather than simply the literal wording.

Reliability, discretion, and responsiveness

Whether translating a single official document, assisting with a house purchase, or interpreting during a formal interview, my objective is always the same: to provide precise, trustworthy language support that allows clients to navigate important situations smoothly and with confidence.
