New challenges: translation services in a post-Brexit economy

We work to the highest standards, so it is rewarding to be appreciated. Here we’d like to share a few of the kind words we have received from our many satisfied clients over the years. Further praise from clients in German-speaking countries can be found here.

Amazing, thank you very much! Super helpful.

Thanks as ever for your prompt invoicing. It always helps to have your line count early, especially on a complex project like this one. Thanks especially for taking on this work under pressure!

You are nothing short of a miracle worker!

Many thanks for your (as ever) prompt delivery and your ability to meet our frequently very tight deadlines! It is much appreciated.

Many thanks for your prompt response for this work – really appreciated. I do get requests for this type of thing – I will certainly contact you again.

Thank you very much for your efficient services.

I would like to say thank you to you personally as the one person who has done more than anyone to help me establish myself as a professional freelance translator and so regain a sense of pleasure and confidence at work which I had lost …. You have taught me a great deal about the craft and technical issues involved as well as about the German language and culture and how to translate/transmit these to the audience in question, and you have done so with patience and sensitivity. Above all, you’ve given me the opportunity to practise all kinds of translations and thereby learn a great deal in the process. Last but not least you have put articles my way … which have given me more background as well as the pleasure of an interesting read.

My client was very pleased with the translations.

I greatly appreciate your professionalism in handling this matter.

Our agents in … and Germany who checked the document for us have said how impressed they were with your translation of a very technical document, the quality of which they have never seen before.

They were very impressed with your … article which they had checked over by the client representative in Germany. They said it was an excellent translation.

He [the client] is very impressed with the quality of the translations that you produce for us, bearing in mind that they are very technical and specific to our industry. Keep up the good work!!!!!!

… client raves about your translations and has decided now to get their brochure copy done by you. I said you were on holiday but they will wait till you get back.

Thank you Herbert for the good job. You definitely have the building know-how we need for this.

Thank you so much for helping us out so supremely with this project and at such very short notice. As translators ourselves, we really appreciate all your effort.
