About ABDT
Specialist Legal Translation for International Law
In international arbitration, cross-border disputes and M&A transactions, a single mistranslated nuance can derail a multi-million dollar claim. Navigating the complex interplay between Civil Law and Common Law systems requires both linguistic precision and a deep understanding of legal reasoning.
Founded by Francine Coirard, a French legal specialist with over 15 years translating and revising complex legal texts for international courts, institutions and organizations. ABDT provides secure, bespoke translation services for international arbitration, cross-border disputes and complex M&A transactions.
As Managing Director, I lead a carefully selected network of specialized legal linguists. This enables ABDT to handle large-scale document reviews and time-critical submissions while maintaining rigorous personal oversight of key legal texts.
