مترجم حقوقی - لائوسی

Verdacert provides USCIS-certified translations for immigration filings, court proceedings, university applications, and medical documentation, with a focus on native-speaker review and fast turnaround. We are looking for a Legal Lao Translator to join our network of native-speaker reviewers, translating legal and civil documents between Lao and English for use in immigration, court, academic, and medical contexts.

What you'll do

• Translate civil, legal, and administrative documents (birth certificates, marriage records, court documents, academic transcripts, and similar) between Lao and English
• Review and edit machine-generated first drafts for accuracy, completeness, and faithful transliteration of names, dates, and official terminology
• Sign certification statements attesting to the accuracy and completeness of each translation in accordance with 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3)
• Preserve original document layout and formatting in the final translated deliverable
• Meet standard, express, and rush turnaround deadlines depending on order type
• Flag inconsistencies, illegible text, or ambiguous source content to the project team before certification

What we're looking for

• Native or near-native fluency in Lao and professional fluency in English
• Demonstrated experience translating legal, civil, or official documents
• Strong attention to detail, particularly with names, dates, and numerical data
• Familiarity with Lao civil registry documents, court records, or academic credentialing conventions
• Ability to meet tight turnaround windows, including rush and same-day requests
• Comfort working with digital document handling tools and PDF-based workflows

Nice to have

• Prior experience translating for USCIS or other US immigration filings
• Certification or accreditation in translation (e.g., ATA or equivalent)
• Experience with notarization or apostille-related documentation processes
