I have a set of legal documents drafted in English that must be rendered accurately into Somali. These are formal papers, so every clause, definition, and citation has to keep its original meaning while sounding natural and precise in Somali. Your task: • Translate the full text of each document from English to Somali. • Deliver a clean, well-formatted copy in Microsoft Word (or editable PDF) that mirrors the source layout where practical. • Keep any headings, section numbers, tables, or exhibits exactly as they appear in the original. Acceptance criteria: • Terminology consistent with standard Somali legal language. • Zero omissions or additions; every paragraph accounted for. • Final file passes my side-by-side spot check for fidelity and clarity. Please let me know your turnaround time and any previous experience with legal translation into Somali.

Hello As a native Somali translator with extensive experience in legal, administrative, and regulatory translation, I can accurately render your legal documents into Somali while maintaining 100% fidelity to the original source text. how I will fulfill your exact requirements: • Legal Terminology & Fidelity: Every clause, definition, and citation will be translated using standard Somali legal terminology without altering the intended legal meaning or introducing ambiguities. • Formatting & Layout Matching: You will receive a clean, editable MS Word document that mirrors your source layout exactly—preserving all headings, section numbers, tables, and exhibits. • Quality Assurance & Zero Omissions: I conduct a rigorous side-by-side review before delivery to ensure zero omissions, complete paragraph accounting, and a seamless spot-check on your end. Turnaround Time & Experience: My standard capacity for legal translation is 1,500 to 2,000 words per 24 hours to allow ample time for side by side proofreading. I have extensive experience translating contracts, legal agreements, official policy frameworks, and administrative papers between English and Somali. Feel free to send a short 50 word excerpt for a quick sample translation so you can verify the precision of my legal terminology firsthand. Looking forward to collaborating with you.
