Andrew Wallace MA, MITI
For more than a decade, I have worked with law firms, multinational companies and public authorities in the Czech Republic, Italy and across Europe to produce clear and informed English translations of their contracts, court submissions and corporate reports. By combining local market knowledge with a native mastery of legal and commercial English, I help clients to minimise their legal and reputational risk and to build strong, trust-based relationships with international clients and investors.
My services are backed by my master’s degrees in Czech & Italian Linguistics (Glasgow, UK) and Legal Translation (Genoa, Italy), as well as my local market experience in Italy, Mexico and the Czech Republic. I am a member of the UK Institute of Translation and Interpreting.
