About Us
Founded in 1994 and formally established as a limited company in 2001, LM has built a solid reputation in the fields of translation, interpreting, and language education. With decades of experience, the company is rooted in precision, reliability, and long-term client relationships.
From the very beginning, our focus has been clear: to deliver language services that go beyond words. We support our clients with accurate communication, and cultural understanding. This approach has allowed us to build lasting partnerships, with many clients trusting our services for over 30 years.
What We Stand For
At the core of our work is a simple principle: language must be understood exactly as intended.
We combine linguistic expertise with practical, real-world application — ensuring that every document, conversation, and interaction is handled with accuracy. Our reputation is built on competence, strict adherence to deadlines, and consistent availability throughout the year.
Every project is approached with the same level of care, regardless of its size or complexity.
Our Expertise
Our services cover a wide range of specialised fields, supporting both individuals and organisations across diverse industries.
We regularly work in areas such as:
- Education, training, and academic environments
- Intercultural communication
- Legal and judicial matters
- Medicine and the pharmaceutical industry
- Financial and insurance sectors
- Public administration and international organisations
- Civil construction and public works
Legal work represents a core part of our activity, including the translation of personal documents, contracts, statutes, corporate by-laws, court documents, and corporate records, as well as interpreting services for legal proceedings.
A Multilingual, Highly Qualified Team
Our translation and interpretation team is composed of highly qualified translators and interpreters, working across more than 30 languages. Each translation undergoes thorough terminological and linguistic revision before delivery, ensuring that the final product is accurate, consistent, and ready for immediate use.
All professionals working with us in the other services offered hold advanced academic qualifications — Bachelor’s, Master’s, and Doctoral degrees — and specialise in areas such as Linguistics, Philology, Teaching, Sociology, International Relations, Social Policy, Conflict Mediation and Law. We also collaborate with external experts in fields such as Medicine, Engineering, and Pharmaceuticals to ensure accuracy in highly specialised content.
Our core working daily languages include Portuguese, English, French, German, Italian and Spanish, supported by a wide network of additional languages to meet diverse client needs.
Our Approach
We understand that every request is different. Our team adapts to the urgency, complexity, and subject matter of each project, always aiming to meet the specific needs of our clients with efficiency and care.

- International relocation companies

Every project is delivered as a complete, polished product, ensuring that our clients receive not just a service, but a result they can rely on with confidence.
