Do you use machines or electronic translations? No. We are professional translators and editors who do the work "the old-fashioned way." The only machines that we use are our computers and their programs and tools that help us produce high-quality work. For example, spellers and dictionaries.
Will the translation sound "native"?
Yes. Contrary to the methods used by most individual translators and other agencies, our translations are done by native speakers of the target language. For example, translations from Spanish into English are done by translators whose native language is English. Additionally, we have quality assurance procedures in place. Our translations are always proofread and edited by at least one or two professional editors who are native speakers of the target language.
What are your prices or your rates?
Every assignment is unique, and that is why we cannot provide general rates. We give an exact quote for each assignment. This is a free, prompt, and friendly service. We have an e-mail address and a fax number specifically for this: estimates@abracadabraTR.com and fax (954) 602-1362. If you send us the documents you need translated (or a sample thereof), we will reply promptly with an exact quote.
My documents contain confidential or proprietary information. How can I be sure that my information will not be disclosed?
We are aware of the confidentiality inherent in the nature of the services we provide, and are very conscious of and sensitive to this. We treat every assignment and all information sent to us as strictly confidential, whether you consider it confidential or not. The same applies to any and all files and/or information of any kind sent to us during an estimate request. This is also true for contact and payment information. We are accustomed to translating confidential documents for individuals, corporations, and government offices, and we never disclose any of this information to anybody. We have many satisfied customers who have been trusting us with their confidential information for years. If necessary, we will sign a confidentiality agreement.
Do you provide certified translations?
Yes. Upon request, we will print the translated documents on our letterhead and provide a certificate of accuracy, which is signed and notarized. For your convenience, the certified translations can be sent to you by regular mail or overnight delivery (for an additional fee) anywhere in the United States or anywhere else in the world. Our certified translations are accepted by the immigration service, embassies, courts, universities, etc.
Where are you located?
Abracadabra Translations is an Internet-based company. This website is our virtual office and we reply to e-mails almost immediately. Clients send us their documents via e-mail or fax, and we can deliver the translated files by e-mail, fax, regular mail, or overnight delivery (for an additional fee). You can also contact us by calling (954) 885-1744.
Are you hiring?
We are not hiring at this time. Due to the large number of résumés and offers we receive, it is impossible for us to reply to every individual application. You are welcome to send us your information, but we will only contact you if a position becomes available. If you are an interpreter and decide to send us your information, please include your native language and the city where you work.
