What is a legal translation?

A legal translation is a translation that has been formally verified for use in official purposes. Documents that require certified translation services might include papers that have to be submitted to an Immigration or Naturalization Department (such as birth, marriage and divorce certificates), official transcripts (such as high school certificates, university degrees and vocational training certificates), regulatory documents (such as informed consents, protocols, research data forms and case report forms), patents and many others.

Office Equipment Translator needs

Even if you need to purchase some pieces of computer or office equipment, start up expenses for a freelance translation business should be relatively modest. If you already have an appropriate computer and a place to work from, your expenses might run only a few hundred dollars. Whether you have them already or not, here are a few items that make up the basic translation home office:
A computer and internet access.
computer is absolutely essential to a translator's work, and for backup purposes you may even want or need more than one computer.If you live in an area where wireless Internet access is available in public places, a laptop with Wi-Fi capabilities can be a great way to escape the home office when you get lonely or  Internet access, another essential element of the translation  home office.
A good sized computer monitor

A monitor is also important, in order to minimize the amount of time you spend scrolling up and down. A 21-inch monitor is ideal, and some translators even install two video cards in their computer in order to accommodate two 21-inch monitors, one for the source document and one for the target, or one for the translation memory program and one for an online reference.

A comfortable desk and chair. You're going to be spending 90% or more of your time sitting at your desk, so make it comfortable and correctly sized for you.
A phone line and fax machine
You must have a business phone line and a fax machine to receive faxes all the day.
A place to keep files.

You'll need a filing box or cabinet to keep invoices, check stubs, tax information, hard copy translation documents, client information, etc.

TRANSLATION SKILLS YOU WILL NEED.

As a freelance translator or interpreter, you'll be exchanging the freedom of self-employment for the responsibility of finding your own work, charging a fair rate for this work, making sure you get paid, tracking your own tax liabilities, and many other tasks. In this section, we'll take a look at the non language-related skills that make for a successful freelance business.
Communicating.

People do business with people they like, so while you don't want to grovel, it's important to hone your communications skills where your freelance business is concerned.
First, you have to actually do the communicating;
answer all business-related phone calls and e-mails as soon
as possible, always within the same business day and preferably within an hour, and change your voice mail message or e-mail auto-responder when you'll be out of the office for more than one business day. Be honest about your availability and don't promise miracles that you can't deliver.
Second, you need to communicate in a way that is positive
and professional. Answer the phone cheerfully; when someone contacts you for work, thank them for thinking of you. When you call a client back and they've already found another linguist, thank them for contacting you and ask them to keep you in mind in the future, rather than getting angry that they didn't wait for your response.
Accounting.

Like marketing, this is a concept that sounds frightening

if you've never done it before. Especially if you've

always worked as a salaried employee, working as a freelancer will require much more record-keeping than you've done before. However, at its most basic level, accounting for a freelancer consists of keeping records of your income and expenses, something that is definitely within your grasp. As with communicating, the most important aspect of accounting is to do it; record every payment as soon as you receive it and save receipts for every business expense in order to minimize your headaches at tax time.

Using technology.

For translators, the days of pen and paper work are long gone, and you'll need to know how to use, at a minimum, the Internet, e-mail, and office software such as word processing and spreadsheet programs and so on.
