What is the best translation of The Trial and Death of Socrates?

Something easily accessible but without lacking anything of substance. Modern english please.

Learn Ancient Greek, pleb. Learn how to go to waruso with questions about translations. But I will help you just once... go with Hackett for Plato (Grube), it's affordable and good.

Reminder to read Plato's AND Xenophon's account of it.

this, currently the scholarly standard (that said, I think the old Jowett translations 'feel' a lot better/more fitting to the material, even though they're not as accurate or readable)
