[WSBAPT] Japanese translator to convert probate documents

[Alexis Singletary]

Eek - oh, doy. Of course.  Thanks for catching that, Phillip!
I certainly knew what I meant even if my typing didn’t.  Ha Ha!

Thanks for the referrals and avenues for assistance, everyone!

Best regards,
Alexis

Subject: Re: [WSBAPT] Japanese interpreter to convert probate documents

Just to be technically precise, you are looking for a translator rather than an interpreter.
You might ask Akane Suzuki for a referral.
If you can’t find one near you, I might have a referral down here in Portland. I know a Japanese translator who does business/commercial documents, but does not specialize in legal documents.

They maintain a list of certified interpreters for all languages. In my experience, they are happy to share those resources.

Quoting Alexis Singletary <alexis at singletarylawoffice.com<mailto:alexis at singletarylawoffice.com>>:
Happy Monday!
Estate need a certified Japanese interpreter to prepare/convert certain existing WA probate documents for Japanese heir in Japan (Notice of Appointment, my cover letter, perhaps even the Will, etc.).
Decedent was age 90 and one named Heir in the Will is her older sister, so we need proof of sister still being alive at time of decedent’s passing.  Close to $50,000 so we need it done right.

 Thank you!

 Best regards,

 Alexis
