Translation Services in Washington, D.C.

From our office on Pennsylvania Avenue near Capitol Hill, The Translation Company Group serves federal agencies, government contractors, embassies, nonprofits, law firms, and hospitals across Washington and the DMV.

Built for government and federal work
Washington work has its own requirements, and we are set up for them. We are registered in SAM.gov as a woman-owned small business, we provide Section 508 accessibility remediation so public-facing documents meet federal standards, and we have supported state and federal projects in partnership with other providers. Every project is handled with confidentiality and a documented quality process, and our owner, a licensed attorney, oversees governance and standards across the firm.
We are not a set-aside reseller. When you work with us you get the actual team doing the work, direct access to decision-makers, and accountability that runs from the CEO to the linguist on your file.
A partner, not a vendor
Most organizations treat translation as a transaction. We treat it as a professional relationship. Our owner, Luciano Oliveira, is a licensed attorney and oversees the company’s quality standards and governance, so you get consistent terminology, confidentiality, and a team that understands the stakes of government, legal, and medical work in Washington.
That is why clients keep a long-term relationship with us rather than shopping each project around: one partner who already knows your material, your preferences, and your deadlines.

We assist federal and state agencies, county and municipal departments, medical facilities, school districts, and other public bodies across the region.
