Hello,

My name is Javier Ochoa and I am a Certified Legal Translator graduated from the School of Law, University of Buenos Aires. I am registered with the Sworn Translator's Association for the City of Buenos Aires (CTPCBA) under professional license Volume XXI Folio 228 No. 8336.

Since I obtained my degree in Legal Translation I started working as an independent translator and editor for different translation companies and together with former professors  -now colleagues- from the University of Buenos Aires. I have worked with different types of legal and medical documents such as contracts, articles of incorporation, by-laws, personal documents, wills, court document, informed consent forms, clinical trial agreements, patient brochures, among others.

At the same time, in January 2014 I started working for the United States Embassy in Buenos Aires within the Consular Section. Although Argentine citizens or third country nationals apply for a visa in Argentina, they are still subject to U.S. law which may be difficult to understand. As a Visa Assistant, I was in charge of helping the Vice-Consuls to explain visa applicants their refusals under Section 214(b) of the Immigration and Nationality Act. 

I would also like to mention that in January 2016 I will start an internship for the Organization of American States in Washington D.C. I will be working as a translator for the Executive Secretariat within the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,
Javier
