Matthew Bennett’s Summary

English and Spanish law, language, business and culture.

I translate contracts, teach lawyers English and blog about it all from Murcia in the South of Spain.

I studied Modern Languages and Linguistics (French & Spanish) and I have worked as a copywriter, journalist, translator and languages teacher.

I also set up and ran (for two years, as its Managing Director) a languages-related private limited company here in Murcia.

I have lived in the UK, Spain, France, Sweden and Russia.

I enjoy running and drinking Rioja, among other things.

Please contact me if you would like me to work with your company or law firm to translate your contracts and legal documents into either English or Spanish.

Matthew Bennett’s Specialties:
