Testimonials

Who are my customers? I work mainly with corporate clients based in Germany, Switzerland and Austria. Their businesses are varied: accountants, solicitors, consultants, financial service providers and hotel chains - to name just a few. I also partner with select translation agencies which have the capacities to meet the needs of particularly large clients.

In all my work, respecting the privacy of my clients is my highest priority, with confidentiality guaranteed when handling your texts. The following clients, however, have kindly agreed to be named and to talk about their experiences.

Federal Chancellor Helmut Schmidt Foundation, Hamburg

Bundeskanzler-Helmut-Schmidt-Stiftung
The Federal Chancellor Helmut Schmidt Foundation (Bundeskanzler-Helmut-Schmidt-Stiftung) commemorates one of the most important 20th-century German statesmen. As a future-oriented think tank, it addresses issues that also motivated Schmidt as a pioneering thinker.

Geoffrey Miller translated all the texts for our permanent exhibition “Schmidt! Living Democracy” and also for our “Schmidt Map,” a virtual city tour that retraces Helmut Schmidt’s footsteps in Hamburg. The exhibition team and our visitors are delighted. The texts read perfectly and are also always on point when it comes to specialist concepts. Geoffrey Miller is a strong communicator and always works quickly and reliably. He always checks that we’re satisfied with the texts and asks for our critical feedback. The texts become even better in the process.

Dieter David Seuthe, Schwalbach am Taunus, near Frankfurt am Main

Author, Registered Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist

In 2015, [Geoffrey Miller] worked closely with me to translate an extended section of my book Frankfurt verboten, a historical novel set in pre-war Germany…I am happy to say that Mr. Miller rose to this challenge with great skill and delivered me a magnificent translation. His work, crucially, did not just accurately convert the words on the page into English, but also expertly reproduced the novel’s overall colour and atmosphere for a foreign readership. The passage he translated has been used at this year’s [2016] Berlin Film Festival, to sell the novel to Anglo-American movie producers. In all our communications, both in written and oral form, Mr. Miller has been consistently professional and helpful in responding to and accommodating my requirements and wishes.
