Lawful Translations
A blog about Law and Translation and everything in between
WELCOME
Maria Vana Lawful Translations is a blog dedicated to providing relevant content on Law and Languages in general, and Legal Translation in particular. Here you will find articles, insights, news and helpful resources (such as glossaries, dictionaries, and a list of official acronyms that every lawyer-linguist should have at hand) in the fields of law and legal translation. If you are interested in sharing your own thoughts or resources, please email me* your article or glossary and I will gladly add it for free to my blog with proper credit, and then share it on my social media with your consent. I am currently looking into the possibility of monetizing some of the content in the near future, but, for now, please keep in mind that everything on this blog is pro bono, therefore, in case you decide to participate, expect all the acknowledgement you deserve, but no money in return. There are only two requirements: you must be over 18 years old, and your content must necessarily be in English, Portuguese or Romanian (more languages coming soon). My main purpose with this blog is to create a platform and a community where lawyers and legal translators from all over the world get together to exchange their knowledge and expertise, while also sharing their views on the latest trends and developments in Law and Translation. So don't be a passive reader. Do get involved. I want to give you a voice, in case you are willing to contribute with your insight on legal matters or translation issues (or both). Maria Vana Lawful Translations is your passport to my restless mind, and an opportunity — in my humble opinion, not to be missed — to share your perspective and even make a difference with your valuable ideas in the landscape of laws and languages.

* Should you decide to commit to this blog by sharing your ideas on a regular basis, I will make sure to reward your dedication by creating a writer profile exclusively for you so that you can write your posts in your own timing and without needing my intervention. You will also be able to modify or delete them at any given time without my prior consent. Your name will be visible as the author of the posts for copyright purposes and others will be able to check out your profile in case they want to reach you directly. Basically, you gain a rent-free space on my blog. Sounds interesting?
