Lexacom face-to-face legal terminology workshops ? From Words to ...

Back in March, I posted about a series of legal terminology webinars presented by David Hutchins of Lexacom. Today I?d like to make you aware of his autumn programme of face-to-face courses to be held in London, England. The courses can also be organized for groups elsewhere ? recent venues have been Prague, Bologna, Copenhagen and Stockholm, for example.

David?s courses are aimed at bringing knowledge of English common law both to lawyers from civil law jurisdictions, and to legal translators and interpreters.

David?s face-to-face courses are highly motivating and fast-paced, and have been very favorably reported on two occasions by the Institute of Translation & Interpreting (ITI) ? to see the?articles click here, as well as being recommended for lawyers by the German?DeutscheAnwaltAkademie?and the Swedish Armed Forces.

In particular, I think that it is extremely refreshing that a solicitor of such experience is interested in working with translators, listening to their comments and generating such rich interaction ? building those bridges I keep talking about? :-)
