Professional interpretation services provide real-time spoken language support so people who speak different languages can communicate accurately. Native Translation & Interpretation Services offers consecutive, simultaneous, phone (OPI), video (VRI), in-person and American Sign Language (ASL) interpretation. Our interpreters cover 30+ languages and serve legal, medical, immigration, corporate and government clients across the United States.
What Is Interpretation, and How Is It Different from Translation?
Interpretation converts spoken language into another language in real time. Translation converts written documents. A hearing, a doctor’s appointment or a conference call needs an interpreter. A birth certificate, contract or academic transcript needs a certified translator.
This matters because choosing the wrong service can delay a court case, an immigration filing or a medical visit. If you need both, Native Translation provides interpretation and certified translation under one roof.
What Types of Interpretation Services Are Available?
The right mode depends on your setting, audience and timeline.
- Consecutive interpretation: The speaker pauses and the interpreter delivers the message. It suits interviews, depositions and medical appointments.
- Simultaneous interpretation: The interpreter works in real time, usually with headsets. It suits conferences and large events.
- Over-the-phone interpretation (OPI): Phone access to an interpreter on short notice.
- Video remote interpretation (VRI): A live interpreter on screen, useful for hospitals, clinics and remote hearings.
- In-person interpretation: An on-site interpreter for high-stakes or sensitive situations.
- American Sign Language (ASL): Support for Deaf and hard-of-hearing communities.
- Equipment rental: Booths, headsets and technical support for multilingual events.
Court Interpretation: Accuracy Under Legal Pressure
Court proceedings leave no room for error. A mistranslated word can change testimony or affect a ruling. Court interpreters must understand legal vocabulary, courtroom protocol and the ethics of neutrality.
Native Translation provides certified court interpreters for trials, hearings, depositions and arraignments, available on-site or remotely. Our interpreters have experience in criminal, civil, family, juvenile and administrative matters. They are prepared for oath procedures, cross-examination and evidentiary exchanges. Courts, law firms, public defenders and prosecutors rely on this level of impartiality.
Medical Interpretation: Protecting Patient Safety
Language barriers in healthcare lead to misdiagnoses, medication errors and poor patient outcomes. A medical interpreter does more than translate words. They preserve clinical accuracy and help patients understand their care.
Our linguists combine language proficiency with medical knowledge across primary care, emergency medicine, mental health, pediatrics, OB/GYN, oncology and more. For hospitals and clinics, we offer in-person, phone and video interpretation. We also review glossaries and slides before appointments and provide on-site team support for multi-day clinics.
Immigration Interpretation and USCIS Interview Support
Immigration interviews are stressful. Applicants often need to explain complex personal histories in a second language, and interpretation errors can create serious problems.
We support applicants, attorneys and officers with neutral, confidential interpretation for:
- Asylum interviews
- Adjustment of status interviews
- Naturalization and citizenship interviews
- Consular processing appointments
- Family-based petition interviews
Our interpreters understand USCIS protocol and help applicants feel prepared and confident.
Event and Conference Interpretation
Multilingual events need clear communication. We staff experienced interpreters for conferences, trade shows, corporate meetings, community forums, cultural festivals, workshops, award ceremonies, press conferences and virtual or hybrid events. Equipment rental and technical support are available, so you get one provider instead of several vendors.
DLITE Interpretation for Government and Defense
As a qualified DLITE interpretation provider, Native Translation serves federal agencies, defense contractors and corporate clients on CONUS and OCONUS assignments. Many of our interpreters have U.S. Army experience, which adds field-tested skill in briefings, interviews, training sessions and operational environments.
