Working with Rafael is a real pleasure. Not only is he responsive and friendly, he’s also organised and will deliver on time. He’s always very open about his capacity, and reaches out to us beforehand when he’s about to be unavailable for a while, which allows us to plan ahead. He is a trustworthy and very capable copywriter. Though he’s recently joined our community of freelancers, he has already collaborated on many projects involving French transcreation and copy origination on a variety of accounts, ranging from FMCG brands to well-renowned e-commerce platforms. He is a highly versatile linguist able to work on highly creative, or more straightforward copy equally as well. His input has always been precious and valuable, and the whole team appreciates his thoroughness – Rafael will read and digest the brief and respect the tone of voice and the brand, whilst still managing to think outside the box and come up with compelling and creative proposals – even on tight turnaround projects! Any team would be very fortunate to have him on board. Thank you for your continuous hard work!

I worked with Rafael on a very large project. Attention to detail was integral to ensure consistency, not only within the individual files, but also throughout the entire project. Rafael was extremely diligent and thorough, and was even able to spot an error in our guidelines and correct it. He was also extremely responsive, and willing to answer any queries that I had after delivery. He met all our deadlines and was extremely professional and easy to deal with. Working with Rafael was truly a pleasure, and he made my job of managing the various projects very easy. I look forward to working with him again in the future and highly recommend him.

Rafael is a skilled and diligent translator whom I highly recommend. The translation he delivered was consistent and read incredibly well. He provided several innovative solutions for the particular difficulties of this translation task, such as limited space, and also came up with some fantastic French equivalents for the idioms provided in the text. He is also a joy to work with. He is quick to respond to any correspondence that he receives and is polite, reliable and thorough. I will most definitely call upon his services again in the future.work he turns his hand to. He’s also a pleasure to deal with.

This was my initiation to private translation. I needed some legal documents translated urgently and to a high standard. Rafael worked quickly to meet my needs and the whole experience was trouble free. I was very pleased with the outcome and would go straight back to Rafael if I needed any translation in future.
