Deborah do Carmo, Lawyer-Linguist
As the job title Lawyer-Linguist suggests, I hold formal qualifications in - and work at the interface of - law and language.
To be more specific, I translate mostly legal and financial texts for a living, from Dutch (NL/BE) into my native English (UK), and provide editing services for native English and ESL lawyers. Precision under pressure sums up my typical working day.
