The same process applies in reverse for English to French translation, prepared for submission in France, Canada, Belgium, Switzerland, or other French-speaking jurisdictions.

Expert translation, and quickly done. Will use again. The only draw back is that they don't have a dedicated payment portal. It is through bank transfer.
