Legal Aid Translation Rates for Solicitors

Our guide to LAA translation rates explains Connect’s advertised quotation basis and the distinction between supplier charges and Legal Aid Agency reimbursement.

Connect Interpreting & Translation Service provides legal document translation services for solicitors and law firms throughout the UK, including family, criminal, immigration and civil matters.

Our advertised LAA-based translation rate is £100 per 1,000 words (10p per word). This is our quotation basis for suitable instructions, not a statement that the Legal Aid Agency will reimburse every translation at that rate. We confirm the final charge before work begins.
