All proceedings in a courtroom rely on clear, accurate and efficient communication. And if you are a lawyer with a practice in an area with diverse neighborhoods with different ethnic groups, you will need to engage interpretation services to help you communicate effectively with your clients who might be Hispanic, Chinese, and Spanish etc.
So, yes, hiring the right interpreter will definitely make you a better lawyer if you have to deal with clients of diverse ethnicities. Maintaining an efficient line of communication is crucial for handling any proceeding competently.
And so long as the interpreter you are hiring conforms to the ethical obligations expected of a lawyer, you are better off using a translation service than relying on your linguistic skills. In this situation your role is at best supervisory to ensure strict compliance.
Using an interpreter is a safeguard against the risk that you might lose a case due to miscommunication. It will make your representation go above the ordinary legal aptitudes by enabling you to capture all the nuances, structures, semantics and concepts of a different language; and to convey your case eloquently, competently and accurately across the linguistic barrier.
Court Certified interpreter
You will require the special skills of a certified courtroom interpreter to facilitate clear and unambiguous transmission of information. That will make all parties involved in the litigation to easily follow the proceedings despite the language they do not understand.
And since the outcome of a case depends on the accuracy and quality of the interpretation, the interpreters we use in courts are highly skilled in special areas of the law. Their understanding of all legal and court jargon is advanced beyond doubts.
Relying on non-experts with no certified qualifications can lead to misunderstandings or generate conflicts that can determine the outcome of a case negatively. At languages unlimited we maintain a strict process of quality control to ensure you get the highest quality of interpretation.
