Professional and 100% reliable

We've known Sophie and Focus First Proofreading for many years now and we've always been impressed and very satisfied with the translations that we have received. When there has been a need for a quicker turnaround, Focus First Proofreading has been able to deliver on time and with the same quality as always. Although there are many softwares that can translate text nowadays, the risks for big mistakes are there, so we prefer to engage a professional translator. The work done by Sophie's team ensures that the translation is 100% accurate and according to the audience that will be reading the content. We highly recommend Sophie and Focus First Proofreading.

Fast and Accurate Translation Services with Excellent Customer Service

I posted on LinkedIn that I needed a French translator and Sophie responded immediately. I had many candidates, but decided to use Focus First Proofreading because of the responsiveness and ease of communication. My technical team was very happy with the translation and how fast the turn-around time was. I will be using Sophie again for my future translation needs!

Executive & Artistic Director, Entrepreneur

Sophie and her Focus First Proofreading team are a God-send! We didn't know where to turn when it came to translating our outreach materials and contracts into proper French for use in Montreal. I met Sophie at a business networking event and the rest is history! Not only did she help us with the translation, she gave us pointers on how to clean up our English...BIG WIN!!! The work was done in a timely and professional manner as well. Well worth the investment!

Great Translation and Proofreading Services!

Sophie was great to work with. Friendly and prompt with responses, and very thorough with her proofreading and translations. Even providing suggested updates to wording that was over and above what was asked. I would defnitely recommend Sophie for any proofreading or translation needs. Thank you!

Quick and precise translations

I hired Sophie to translate a document for a client and she responded quickly to my request. My client was very happy with the translation. I would highly recommend Sophie and will use her again if I require further translation services.

English to French Translation Services - Very thorough!

I had the opportunity to work with Sophie on an English-to-French translation project. It was my client's first experience with translation and Sophie made it easy. Her attention to detail was top notch and she communicated with me regularly. When the copy changed a couple of times on our end, Sophie rolled with it. I will be confident calling upon her again. Thank you, Sophie!
