Expert Opinions


The increasing use of machine translation, even in sensitive areas, uncorrected and unchecked, is increasingly leading to significant physical, financial and personal damage due to translation errors. But how can you prove to a German court that the damage was caused by such errors? With an expert opinion from a court-appointed and sworn translator, you can prove that the party responsible for the damage did not use a flawless translation and therefore breached their duty of care.

Are you involved in a legal dispute in Germany, in which translation errors play a role? Then you need an expert opinion from a sworn translator that you can use as evidence. You've come to the right place if your case involves translations into or from English or Polish.

  • Von Menschen geprüfte Übersetzungen werden immer wichtiger

    KI-basierte Übersetzungstools wie Google Translate, DeepL oder ChatGPT haben sich stark weiterentwickelt: Die Ergebnisse wirken bei allgemeinsprachlichen Texten flüssig, grammatikalisch korrekt und beinhalten oft idiomatische Ausdrücke, die an muttersprachliche Formulierungen erinnern. Dennoch bergen sie erhebliche Unsicherheiten bei Fachtexten, insbesondere wenn es um inhaltliche Präzision und Begrifflichkeiten mit direkten Rechtsfolgen geht. KI neigt dazu, Inhalte zu „halluzinieren“, also hinzuzufügen oder wegzulassen, was zu Ungenauigkeiten führen kann, die nur durch einen peniblen Vergleich mit dem Ausgangstext erkannt werden können.

  • Marrying as a Foreigner in Germany

    In the context of increasing globalisation, it is becoming increasingly common for couples of different nationalities to meet and wish to marry. While a wedding in Germany is conducted in accordance with German regulations, it is important to note that this does not necessarily imply that only German law applies to the newlyweds.

  • Submission of Original Documents Made Easy

    Certified translations for official purposes are prepared in Germany by sworn translators. The completeness and accuracy of the translation is confirmed in accordance with Section 142(3) of the German Code of Civil Procedure (ZPO). In practice, the translator also notes whether the translation was prepared on the basis of the original document or a certified or simple copy thereof. This procedure is described, for example, in the guidelines of the Federal Association of Interpreters and Translators (BDÜ).
