Which business segments do you support?

For more than 20 years, we have worked with a wide range of customers across many industries, such as aerospace, consumer products, legal, health care and adoption. We provide language services to everyone from individuals and small businesses to Fortune 100 corporations such as Boeing, Nordstrom and Microsoft.

I need an estimate - how can I send you the files?

You can send project files to us via fax, e-mail, post mail or you can stop by our office in Seattle, WA. One of our translation Project Managers will be happy to assist you.

How do you determine the cost for a translation?

Initially, our quotes are based on the word count of a project. However, each project is unique, with specific needs and levels of complexity, and often a project involves more than just translating (e.g., independent review and graphic design), so different service charges may apply.

What are your payment options?

We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express, cash and checks for individual and corporate clients; we also accept purchase orders for corporate clients.

Individuals are required to pay a deposit prior to beginning the work. Additionally, if it is your first time using our services, we need to first approve payment. You can either send us a check or provide credit card information. Your check or credit card will not be processed until all translation services are completed.

In what format do you deliver translations?

For most translation projects, we provide designed digital files in their native format (e.g., Microsoft® Word, Adobe® InDesign®, etc.) as well as a final PDF files. (Note that some fonts cannot be distributed.) For our notary clients, we provide hard-copy translated documents.

Can you provide RUSH services?

If you need your translation sooner than we estimated, we provide RUSH rates for turnaround as quick as Same-Day for most documents and languages, dependent on word count. We aim to reduce the time frame as much as possible without sacrificing quality. For specific pricing, please contact your Dynamic Project Manager.

Can you explain your Notary service?

At Dynamic, some of our in-house staff are certified as Notaries Public. Since many official documents require notarization (birth certificates, marriage certificates, legal documents, government documents, etc.), we are able to provide notarized translated documents, for use in court and other legal arenas.

Can I do the translation and have your company notarize it?

Yes, we can notarize client-produced translations — however, the translated item must first go through our Independent Review service to verify the translation is accurate and meets our standards.

Is Dynamic Language a certified diverse business?

Dynamic Language is proud to be certified as both a women-owned business and a minority-owned business.  Learn more
