I am a Romanian–English translator and localization specialist who helps legal professionals, businesses, and e-commerce brands communicate accurately, clearly, and naturally across both languages. With a legal background, including an LLB, a Master’s degree in Economic Law from Sciences Po, and professional experience in EU competition and digital-regulation matters, I bring strong legal-research, terminology-management, and drafting skills to every translation project. I understand that legal translation is not word-for-word conversion: it requires careful attention to context, consistent terminology, the purpose of the document, and the legal concepts behind it. I have more than five years of experience in website localization and editorial work, including as a Localization Editor for Hostinger International. I can help with: → Website and landing-page localization → Product descriptions and category pages → E-commerce platforms, user interfaces, and in-app content → Help-centre articles, FAQs, onboarding materials, and email communications → SEO conscious Romanian localization → Proofreading, editing, and quality assurance of human- or AI-translated content

I am pleased to e-meet you! I have been an English language enthusiast for more than a decade and a lawyer for 13 years now, and during this period, I have translated civil law, corporate, litigation, and anything that explains and details either of those mentioned above or comes across each of these fields of law. Along with the so-called legalese, I have translated technical (IT), correspondence, magazines, and a psychology book about human motivation. The Romanian Foreign Languages Institute had ascertained that my English level was C2 (native) when I was in Highschool. Hopefully, it got even better, considering my working as a lawyer (registered with the Bucharest Bar) since 2012 (as fully qualified). I have also obtained 260 points in the TOLES Legal English Advanced exam. I am a lawyer-linguist and an authorized translator and interpreter. My authorization number is 38501 of 2018, and you can verify these credentials on the official portal of the Romanian Ministry of Justice. I translate English with pure passion, and nothing gets lost in my translations. By choosing my services, I will bridge the gap for you between no how and know-how.
