contents A translation surface in Lorentz-Minkowski space $\rr^3$ is a surface defined as the sum of two spatial curves. In this paper we present a classification of maximal surfaces of translation type. We prove that if a generating curve is planar, then the other generating curve is also planar. We give a full description of these surfaces. In case that both curves are of Frenet type, we generalize the Scherk surfaces. In case that a curve is a pseudo-null curve, we obtain new examples of maximal surfaces which have not counterparts in Euclidean space.
