Key facts
When a buyer or seller does not master French, an interpreter faithfully conveys the discussions and the reading of the deed at the notary's office. I assist with purchases, sales, and estate settlements, drawing on my professional background in real estate.
Why use an interpreter at the notary's office?
Signing a deed of sale or an estate document is legally binding. Each party must understand what they are signing. When a person does not speak French, an interpreter conveys the reading of the deed and the notary's explanations into their language, in French, English, or Arabic.
My experience in real estate
My professional background in real estate enables me to accurately convey the terminology of deeds and construction projects. I also translate deeds of sale, loan agreements, and estate documents.
How to prepare for the appointment?
Please send me in advance the purpose of the meeting, the deeds to be read or signed, and any documents that will be discussed. These elements allow me to prepare the terminology and familiarise myself with the context. Also remember to check with the notary regarding their requirements for the interpreter.
In person or remotely?
I can assist in person, by telephone, or via videoconference. The notary will let you know which format is accepted for your appointment.
