Welcome! I’m David Stephenson, an independent translator doing business as Bull City Language Services in Durham, North Carolina (the Bull City).

With over 30 years in the business, I have the experience and resources to meet your translation needs in a variety of subject matters and genres.

My fields
Legal and commercial translation: contracts; litigation support materials, including briefs and discovery; incorporation documents; and more.
Literary and book translation: contemporary literature and early modernism; nonfiction works of history, biography, memoirs, popular culture; and more.

My languages
I translate into U.S. English from:
Dutch (Netherlands, Belgium, Suriname)
German (Germany, Switzerland, Austria)
I will also consider interesting into-English projects involving these languages: Bosnian, Croatian, Montenegrin, Serbian, and Afrikaans. For other language needs, consult the American Translators Association.

Before you contact me
Note that I do not provide translations of personal documents (birth certificates, driver’s licenses, educational transcripts, etc.) or medical, technical, and scientific materials.
