PVP — Probative Value Protocol 

PVP is Vocalegal’s internal governance protocol that ensures every translation used in litigation, arbitration, investigations, or regulatory submissions preserves the probative value of the source document. 

In practice, PVP covers: 

• Context-accurate translation that avoids dilution or inference creep 

• Preservation of evidential elements (dates, amounts, speaker IDs, timestamps, footnotes, embedded meaning) 

• Exhibit-ready structure: numbering, references, cross-links 

• Custody logging & audit trail 

• Certification wording aligned with the requirements of the receiving court/tribunal 

• No AI/MT involvement in language production to protect evidential integrity 

Purpose: To ensure translated material can be relied on as evidence, withstand challenge, and be filed without procedural risk. 

CFP — Contract Fidelity Protocol 

CFP is Vocalegal’s accuracy and governance framework for transactional and commercial contracts, ensuring bilingual agreements are legally equivalent and ready for signing, enforcement, or negotiation. 

In practice, CFP covers: 

• Clause-by-clause comparative review (dual linguists) 

• Mirroring of tracked-change rounds 

• Fidelity of defined terms, cross-references, schedules, and annexes 

• Terminology governance across all drafts 

• Signature-page alignment and layout assurance 

• Certifiable output where required 

• Zero use of AI/MT to prevent meaning drift or drafting contamination 

Purpose: To ensure bilingual or translated contracts maintain legal effect, enforceability, and commercial intent without deviation.
