“We contacted Betranslated services in July 2024. My daughter had time sensitive documents that required certified translation from Spanish to English. The company accommodated her request and promptly, accurately translated all of her documents ahead of time. The documents showed clearly which part had been translated to make it easy to identify. They were friendly & professional, and we would recommend their services to anyone.”
