Why It Matters

Why Certified Interpreters Are Critical in Immigration

Rights Are at Stake

Immigration proceedings determine whether someone stays in this country, reunites with family, or faces deportation. A mistranslated word can change the outcome of a case. Certified interpreters protect the accuracy of every statement, eliminating the risk of misrepresented testimony.

Accuracy Under Pressure

Asylum seekers recount trauma. Attorneys build cases around precise language. Immigration judges base decisions on interpreted testimony. Our interpreters are trained to maintain composure, neutrality, and precision in emotionally charged proceedings.

Protocol & Compliance

USCIS, EOIR, and ICE each have specific requirements for interpreter qualifications and conduct. Kaplan interpreters know the protocols for every venue type, from asylum offices to immigration courts, preventing procedural delays and protecting the integrity of the record. All case details remain strictly confidential.
