SUMMARY:Doing Business with Law Firms
DESCRIPTION:Legal translators are expected to master both law and language in a market with its own unique\, and often rigid\, set of rules. This is not a field you jump into unprepared. \nSo how do you know if this field is right for you? How do you prepare to cater to this demanding market? Should you sub-specialize? If so\, in what? How do you get your foot through the door with top law firms? And\, once inside\, how do you keep them happy and coming back? \nPresenter Paula Arturo will draw on her 20+ years of experience and current role at a top law firm to help get you on track for doing business with law firms. \nWhat will you learn?\n\nSix essential steps to take before marketing to law firms\nHow to earn client trust\nHow to manage the cost of doing business without lowering your fees\nHow to foster long-lasting relationships with law firms\nHow to provide the full range of services law firms typically expect\n\nAbout the presenter\nPaula Arturo is a lawyer\, translator\, and professor of law. During a career spanning more than 20 years\, she has worked with some of the biggest names in the legal profession\, including several Nobel Prize laureates and internationally renowned jurists. She has also been an independent lawyer-linguist for the United Nations Universal Periodic Review of several Latin American states. \nPaula is currently a linguistic consultant at Marval O’Farrell Mairal and a director of Translating Lawyers Academy\, an online training organization that helps legal translators hone their writing and translation skills. Paula is a founding member and current administrator of ATA’s Law Division and a member of the Public Policies Forum of the Supreme Court of Argentina.

SUMMARY:How to Provide Language Services from a Gender Perspective
DESCRIPTION:The emergence of several guides to inclusive language in the Spanish-speaking world and the reaction that the Royal Spanish Academy has had toward them beg a controversial question: should language service providers worry about inclusive language? \nMany of us do not really know what inclusive language is but are curious about this linguistic phenomenon. We want to know more. With a focus on descriptive and feminist translation studies\, queer linguistics\, and decolonial theory\, this webinar will offer you answers\, including the reasons behind inclusive language reforms and the role played by language professionals in relation to those reforms―especially in legal contexts. \nWe will also review practical examples to understand strategies that may be used if we are required to use inclusive language or if\, as language professionals\, we have resolved to actively participate in a movement that seeks to build a more equitable society. \nSpecial Notes\n\nThis webinar is presented in Spanish.\n\nWhat will you learn?\n\nWhy inclusive language reforms and practices are not a new trend\nWhat role language providers play in creating fairer societies\nTheoretical and practical tools that will allow you to make word choices\nWays to use inclusive language in your translations\n\nThis webinar was organized with the assistance of ATA’s Spanish Language Division. \nAbout the Presenter\nMariana Favila Alcalá is a sworn translator and Spanish teacher in Mexico. As a freelancer\, she has collaborated with a number of translation agencies and other institutions in Costa Rica\, Germany\, Italy\, Mexico\, Switzerland\, and the United States. As a sociolinguist leading the translation department within a law firm\, she came to realize how important it is to use language critically and inclusively. Therefore\, she has specialized in gender issues and is the co-founder of LetraDas MX\, a women-owned consultancy that provides services from a gender perspective.
