Wildeboer Dellelce LLP has earned its reputation as one of Canada’s leading corporate and securities law firms. Known for a people-first approach, the firm helps clients navigate legal complexities with clarity and actionable business solutions.
However, a people-first approach necessitates robust communications, which in 2025 means accurately translated documents.
The Challenge
As their client base expanded, so did the need for accurate and timely bilingual communication. Yet Wildeboer ran into three major roadblocks:
- Decentralization: With multiple teams managing translations in segmented workflows, accuracy and consistency varied. Measuring quality and usage across the firm became incredibly difficult.
- Limited spending visibility: Without a central system, translation costs were hard to track or manage, causing admin bottlenecks.
- Inefficient processes: Fragmented workflows caused delays, slowing down the firm’s ability to meet client needs quickly.
These issues added unnecessary risk and complexity in an already demanding legal environment.

The Solution
A Single, Centralized Platform
By adopting Alexa Translations’ A.I.-enabled platform, Wildeboer consolidated its translation workflows into one secure, centralized solution. Instead of navigating fragmented systems, the firm now had a single, intuitive platform where lawyers and students could access high-quality translation services with ease.
Transparency and Cost Control
The platform also provided detailed reporting, giving Wildeboer full visibility into translation volumes and costs. This transparency helped optimize budgets and eliminate the administrative bottlenecks associated with manually tracking spending.
Streamlined Workflows
Integration with existing workflows meant translations could flow seamlessly within the firm’s daily operations, removing the inefficiencies of the past.
Unexpected Revenue Generation
Perhaps most surprising was the discovery of a new revenue stream. With the ability to accurately track translation usage, Wildeboer could bill clients directly for translation services. What began as an internal efficiency project quickly evolved into an opportunity for growth, proving that streamlined workflows can deliver benefits beyond cost savings.
The Results
Within one quarter, Wildeboer saw the following results :
- Over 3,000 hours saved, freeing staff to focus on higher-value work.
- Over $300,000 in cost savings, with full visibility into translation spend.
- Enhanced translation accuracy and consistency, critical for legal compliance.
- A new revenue stream, as the firm leveraged translation services to expand offerings to clients.
Perhaps most importantly, the firm gained confidence in the reliability of its translations, ensuring every client interaction was clear, professional, and compliant.
