Description

I am a professional English-Spanish-English certified translator and interpreter with more than 15 years of professional work experience in the USA and Mexico.

I am based in the City of Morelia, State of Michoacán, Mexico.

I specialize in English-Spanish-English legal, financial and academic translations. I also offer legal advice and representation in U.S. immigration Law.

My work is highly specialized. I know the differences between the U.S. common law system and Mexico´s civil law system. I do not only translate words, ideas, or concepts but also intentions, as we deal with legal documents that have profound consequences on individual´s rights and properties.

I know how to use the proper legal terminology, thus, avoiding the use of loan translations, false cognates and other translation mistakes that can change the true intention of an original document. My goal is to deliver high quality, well-written and easy to understand translations that will be accepted by officials in Mexico and abroad.

I completed the ESL (English as a Second Language) program at Georgia Gwinnett College and then I graduated from Phoenix High School in Lawrenceville, GA., USA. I also studied Social Science at the Metropolitan State University of Denver (MSU) in Denver, CO., USA.

I hold a Bachelor of Laws from Universidad del Valle de Mexico (UVM), Professional License No. 7902506.
I also hold a Diploma in Specialized Translation and Professional Interpretation from Universidad Intercontinental (UIC) and a Diploma in Legal Translation and Expert Services at Instituto Superior de Estudios en Traduccion E Interpretacion (ISETI).

Furthermore, I took specialized English-Spanish translation courses at Escuela Libre de Derecho (ELD), taught by Javier F. Becerra. Previously, I took legal English classes at Chelsea Legal English, S.C., a TOLES (Test of Legal English Skills) authorized program in Mexico.

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

I worked as a freelance Court Interpreter in Northern Colorado and I was a Paralegal for Arthur S. Nieto Law Firm in Denver Colorado, USA.

In Mexico I was as an official Translator and Interpreter for the Secretariat of International Relations in the State Government of Chiapas and for the Secretariat of Tourism (SECTUR). I was legal Counsel for the Executive Commission for Victim Services (CEAV) Michoacán Delegation of the Government of the Republic of Mexico.
