Translation and Consulting Office - a brief history

The Michael Rössner translation and language consulting office was founded in 1980 by Dr. Rössner, who completed his Ph.D. and LL.D. at Vienna University and then became an assistant professor at Vienna University's Department of Romance Languages and its School of Interpreting.

Over the past forty+ years, Dr. Rössner's agency has translated approximately 500,000 pages of predominantly legal texts (contracts, laws, pleadings, annual reports) for prominent law firms in Austria, Germany, Switzerland and Liechtenstein.

In 1991, Dr. Rössner became a full professor at Munich University. In 1994, he was responsible for the press releases for the UN Conference on Human Rights in Vienna.

After years of steady business growth, Dr. Rössner transformed his translating agency, which since the late eighties had also been providing other language consulting services (such as PR documents in foreign languages, abstracts of foreign texts [laws], etc.), into a private company under its present firm name LLC-Legal Language Consulting DDr. Rössner & Co KG, on January 1, 1998.

In 1998, Austria took over the Presidency of the Council of the European Union and a joint-venture of Dr. Rössner's company LLC and the European translating network NetVenture Europe was chosen by the Austrian State as the official translating partner for the EU Presidency documents.

In 2013, the Luxembourg government entrusted LLC-DDr. Rössner with the translation of a Website containing all labour law regulations of this country.

Thanks to its network of juridically competent translators and proof-readers in various European countries and the US and to its three-step Quality-Control-model, the company LLC DDr. Rössner & Co. KG has maintained its position of a leading translation agency of legal texts in the German-speaking countries throughout almost half of a century.
