FG Translations
Patent translation demands exceptional precision. Terminology, structure, and consistency directly affect the scope of protection and legal clarity of your intellectual property.
​
I provide specialised patent translation services from English and German into French, with a strong focus on scientific and technical patents in chemistry and life sciences.
A specialist approach to patent translation
With an MSc in Chemistry and two decades of experience, I am particularly well placed to translate patents relating to:
​
-
pharmaceuticals
-
biotechnology and life sciences
-
chemistry and chemical engineering
-
medical and veterinary technologies​
​
I understand the dual nature of patent texts — technical and legal — and ensure that claims, descriptions, and embodiments are rendered faithfully and consistently in French.
Patent documents I translate
-
Patent applications and published patents
-
Claims, descriptions, and abstracts
-
Priority documents
-
Office action responses
-
Related technical documentation
​
Terminology consistency across documents and patent families is always a priority.
Expertise you can depend on
​​​
Patent translation is a specialist discipline — and not every translator truly understands how high the stakes are.
A mistranslated concept, an ambiguous term, an inconsistency…it only takes one small error to weaken protection or trigger expensive corrections. That’s why I work exclusively with scientific and IP-related content and follow patent drafting standards meticulously in every project.
​
My strengths include:
​
-
Precise handling of claims language and invention scope
-
Clear, concise French that safeguards legal intent
-
Familiarity with EPO conventions and terminology
-
Smooth integration into patent families and parallel filings
