When is a court interpreter needed?
Official procedures
Police, court, state attorney’s office, notary public and other competent authorities.
Business meetings
Negotiations, partner meetings, training and communication with international teams.
Personal situations
Weddings, medical appointments and other procedures where complete understanding is important.
Types of interpreting

Interpretation takes place almost simultaneously with speaking, most often at events.
Whispered
Discreet simultaneous interpretation for one person or a small group.
