Court proceedings can only be conducted if everyone understands what is being said. Interpreters play an important role in facilitating clear communication.


The court interpreter plays an important role in court proceedings at both the state and federal levels when the parties involved speak different languages. With professional interpretation services, everyone involved in criminal and civil proceedings can communicate effectively. Pronto Translations offers accurate and professional legal interpreting services to clients in New York, NY and elsewhere in the state and globally online.
Court interpreters help people who don’t speak the first language of use in the court to understand what is being said to them. They also relay to the court the information these individuals provide. Court interpreters help accused people, witnesses, and victims alike. Without a legal interpreter, some people in court would be unable to participate in the proceedings, which would compromise the integrity of the court.
Legal world interpreting can be complex. Therefore, individuals who offer these services must have knowledge of the terms used in court proceedings, criminal investigations, depositions, and litigation. This is in addition to being fluent in the languages they’re interpreting.

At Pronto Translations, we work with more than 300 language pairs. Our legal interpreters and translators are accredited by one of the organizations that certify individuals in this specialty area. Therefore, you can be assured that our court interpreter services are of the highest quality.
A certified legal interpreter typically uses two main types of interpretation in court. Simultaneous interpretation involves listening to the speaker and interpreting what they’re saying at the same time. However, in consecutive interpretation, the interpreter waits until the person has completed a few sentences before they begin their interpretation.
The need for professional interpretation services is growing as the country becomes increasingly diverse. If you’re building a legal case of some kind and you need assistance with multilingual and international communication, you should hire a local legal interpreting professional near you.
