Commitments

Reliability

It is critical that your technical document be understood by the experts of your sector. To this end, the translator has to grasp the meaning of all technical terms and the scientific reasoning in order to convey its exact meaning. My scientific knowledge allows me to translate very technical contents. I use the terminology specific to your domain and perform extensive terminology research to deliver a document that perfectly meets your expectations.

Quality

All contents are translated and proofread with the utmost care to ensure the consistency of the text, respect of the terminology specific to your domain, but also the syntax, the grammar, the typographical norms and the original layout.

Compliance with delivery deadlines

I undertake to provide you with your translations within the deadlines agreed upon at the beginning of the project. Do not hesitate if you need an urgent translation, I will send you a quote ASAP.

Confidentiality

Confidentiality is an integral part of my work. All requests for translation and quotations are dealt with in the strictest confidence.

Rates

Translation (including proofreading) and proofreading (only) are charged according to the number of words in the source document as counted by the MS Word software

Rates are subject to change depending on the nature of the translation, its complexity and the requested timeline. Urgent work requiring work on weekends, holidays or at night shall lead to an increase. A minimum fee is charged for translation of less than 250 words and proofreading of less than 500 words.

My rates are fair, competitive and reflect the quality of my work.

Do not hesitate to send me your documents and your requirements (deadline, specific terminology...) so that I can send you a free personalized quote.

About

CBM translations, c'est moi : Caroline Milhau! I graduated from ECPM (Ecole Européenne de Chimie, Polymères et Matériaux, Strasbourg, France) in 2007 as a chemical engineer, and then spent 4 years immersed in the English language in Ireland in Dublin for my PhD in chemistry at UCD (University College Dublin).

Subsequently, I specialized in the field of patents working as a translator/patent engineer for 5 years in an Intellectual Property Law Firm in the greater Paris area. During this time, I also obtained the accelerated tuition "Patents" degree at the CEIPI (Center of International Studies of the Intellectual Property, Strasbourg, France).

Combining scientific and linguistic skills, as well as experience in the complex field of patents, allows me to translate your most specialized technical documents, giving close attention to details, in order to provide you with the most accurate translation possible.
