Phoenix TranslationsTel.:+1 877-452-1348Website:phoenixtranslations.com Texas-based Phoenix Translations offers technical, medical, scientific, and legal translation service, as well as translations in other fields. Their special service offerings include free patent retrieval and free notarized certifications for all translations. They also offer "rush service" at no extra cost, although what they mean by rush service is not specified on their website. We are perplexed by their advertised "standard turnaround time" of 5-7 working days, which makes no mention of translation volume. 5-7 working days is exceedingly slow for 100 words and exceedingly fast for 100 pages. The Phoenix Translations website describes a rigorous quality assurance process for translations which involves editing and proofreading by subject-area specialists who are natives of the translation's target language. Their website quotes a number of anonymous, but enthusiastic, testimonials. Their published client list includes 3M, Johnson & Johnson, Kodak, and Pfizer, among others.
