Hi folks, I hate for my second post to be one where I come with hat in hand asking for something. But has to be. Sorry. River Girl responded to post recommending Julie Menasco for translation work. That post was almost a year ago. Is Julie still an option for officially translating some paperwork?
Chris Ellis, has the highest professional designation available for translators. He has done work for me more than once as well as for clients. Speaks both English and Spanish to perfection. His mom is an/my attorney and his step dad is a Notario. Very reasonable fees, that depend on the complexity and length. darkolas@yahoo.com. Cell, if calling from US 011 521 998 109 5865 From Cancun land line 044 998 109 5865 and it is long distance From Cancun cell 998 109 5865 From US cell calling FROM Cancun while roaming 998 109 5865 You can mention my name if you want to. He is a good guy too.
Perito Here's another you can try, she's on Bonampak, at the corner with Xcaret. Raquel Dobrovski, 9988706207. She, like Chris, is a "perito", a translator officially designated as such by the Mexican Government. We've used her. She charges 250 pesos per page, regardless of the "density" of the text, so this can be the less expensive option if the document contains many words. (Some of mine have contained over 500 words.) Menasco is still available, as well. ______________________ Some legal processes here will require, 1) certified; 2) apostilled (or authenticated); and, 3) officially translated- birth certificates, marriage certificates, divorce decrees, and educational records: the good thing is that, although they are somewhat expensive and burdensome to get together initially, once done you can use them again and again. ______________________
V, Might you mean Coba and Bonampak? I believe Xcaret merges into Coba at Tulum and Coba becomes the street name, until at Bonampak, where Coba then becomes Blvd Kukulcan. Or is there other streets named Bonampak and Xcaret that intersect somewhere else? I know there are many street names that are in different SMs that are nowhere near one another. My maps for SMs 3, 4 and 5, all show the name as Coba, between Tulum and Bonampak. Thanks,
It seems to be local usage (though not correct) to call that one way section of the widely divided Coba, between Tulum and Bonampak, "Xcaret", perhaps because it seems so, it being a one way continuation of the one way Xcaret, when heading towards the HZ. Without giving further directions to her office, I could say it's directly across the street from the gas station at the entrance to the HZ.
Cool. At least I and others now know exactly where you are talking about. Since you live closer to there than I, you would better know the "local usage", right or wrong as you point out . Not that it matters, but I have to go in that direction today and will check the street signs. Will let you know privately unless you are already sure and then you can let me know. Thanks for the clarification.
