Annette Granat Panama Local time: 20:06 din engleză în spaniolă

Hi,
Does anybody know of an organization that reviews (for free or for a low fee) book translation contracts to make sure the contract includes fair clauses for the freelancer? I would like to know if something like that exists or whether I would have to pay a lawyer to do this every time.
Thanks.
Best,
Annette

Recommendation: Paula Arturo, Lawyer and Translator
Sep 11, 2018
Hi Annette!
I take it the contract is drafted in English? Paula is a native speaker of both English and Spanish, so if either of these languages apply, I can't recommend her highly enough. You can find her on ProZ: https://www.proz.com/profile/56170 or here: https://themuses.biz

writer's or translator's associations
Sep 11, 2018
Writer's and translator's associations usually give (free) guidelines on contracts with publishers ; they can also offer a consultation with a specialist lawyer, free with membership or for a reasonable fee, to check a specific agreement.

If you are in the UK, and an author and/or translator member of the Society of Authors (including the Translators Association), the SoA offers such a service. I have found them to be excellent: https://www.societyofauthors.org/
