Suzanne E. Deliscar, Lawyer-Linguist, and ProZ.com are pleased to partner to present the 4th Lawyer-Linguists virtual event.


The 4th annual Lawyer Linguist virtual event was held on December 9th, 2015

 


Lawyer-Linguists are professionals who use both their professional credentials in law and translation and/or interpretation in their daily work. Some lawyer-linguists are freelancers, while others work for law firms, governmental institutions, and other corporate entities. Practicing lawyer-linguists, as well as those interested in this dual profession, will be provided with content-rich presentations from a variety of lawyer-linguists globally, as well as other stakeholders, who will share information on the different types of work that lawyer-linguists carry out, training for the profession, as well as legal translation techniques and resources.

Access to recorded sessions Dec 3, 2015

Yes the recordings of the Lawyer Linguist virtual event will be available, but they are initially made available only to those that attended the virtual event on December 9th...even if just briefly. So if you're able to login on the 9th and check in - visit any virtual event session page - then you will be guaranteed immediate & unlimited access to the video recording content.

Thanks

Drew
