- Client profile
- Student applying to study abroad · the institution deadline drives the timeline · Location: South Africa (coordinated with Phetchabun)
- Services used
- corporate and commercial law work + litigation and dispute resolution + wills and succession
- Challenge
- The translated name of an authority did not match its official name — the task was to make this set usable by the receiving authority in South Africa in the required format.
- What we did
- review each original document and produce a checklist of what to fix before filing
- have a second reviewer proofread the translation independently of the translator
- draft a power of attorney that covers every step to be handled on the client's behalf
- prepare the translation using the official names the authorities themselves use
- Outcome and indicative timeline
- the risk points were corrected before filing, which reduced the number of revision rounds · about one working week, depending on the intake cycle
- What mattered most to the client
- plain-language reasons for each step in the chain
