Frequently Asked Questions
What is functional equivalence in legal translation?
It means ensuring a translated document has the same legal effect as the original. You don't want a word-for-word copy. You need a document that works the same way in a different legal system. Smartcat's AI and review process helps you achieve this.
What are legal translation and functionalist approaches?
Functionalist approaches focus on the purpose of the translation. For legal documents, this means adapting the text to function correctly in the target country's legal context. Our platform supports this by allowing expert legal reviewers to make crucial adaptations.
Isn't 'legal translation and functionalist approaches a contradiction in terms'?
It can seem that way. Legal language needs to be precise, but functional translation requires flexibility. Smartcat helps you balance both. Our AI provides a precise first draft, and your legal reviewers can apply their expertise to ensure functional accuracy.
How does Smartcat protect my sensitive legal documents?
We protect your confidential information by default. All data is secure. For even stronger security, you can choose private or on-premise deployment options for your organization.
How accurate is the AI translation for legal content?
Our AI delivers over 95% accuracy from the start. For the nuances of legal documents, we always recommend having a human legal reviewer validate the final output for complete confidence.
Can I use my own legal reviewers on the platform?
Absolutely. You can easily invite your own in-house counsel, paralegals, or preferred external legal reviewers to collaborate within the Smartcat platform. You can also source vetted legal reviewers from our marketplace.
