I would give 10 stars if I could! I asked Desmond to help me translate a personal apology letter. He has the ability to read the subtle nuances and translate with cultural appropriateness while still preserving the original emotions/feelings I was trying to convey. All in all, the letter was well-received...

A bit pricey on a per photo rate compared to a per-word basis, but the quality of work is top-notch. Extremely quick turn around time; got back to me in less than a day despite having 42 images to go through. On top of that, they went above and beyond with 3 translations and proof-reads with annotations...

Desmond is a professional to work with, extremely pro active, polite and with a lot of attention to details. Took my initial document to translate and delivered a detailed document with annotations regarding the translation choices for every entry of the document. Amazing work!

Excellent work. Delivered accurate, well-formatted translations on time. Used appropriate formal address throughout and included pronunciation guides as requested. They were eager to ensure the translations were perfect and were happy to revise until I was completely satisfied. The translations were reviewed and required no corrections. Would hire again.

I needed an accurate translation into English of a Korean news article and Desmond completed in the job in just one day. Delivered to me in a Word .docx file, the translation is very high quality, showed attention to detail, and the work exceeded my expectations.
