For asylum seekers, refugees, and vulnerable clients, language barriers can have serious consequences. Accurate interpretation is not a luxury: it’s a necessity that ensures clients can communicate their experiences and protect their rights.
The Stakes Are High
Imagine fleeing trauma, persecution, or war and being asked to recount your story in a language you barely know. For many asylum clients:
- English is not their first language
- Legal processes are unfamiliar and intimidating
- Trauma can affect communication and confidence
- Miscommunication may jeopardize your case
How Interpreters Make a Difference
Certified interpreters:
- Translate accurately and impartially.
- Understand cultural nuances and sensitivities.
- Build trust and provide dignity to clients.
- Enable solicitors to fully understand their clients.
Urgent Cases Require Expert Support
Interpreters are especially critical in:
- Emergency Home Office or immigration interviews.
- Court hearings requiring immediate understanding.
- Complex asylum documentation.
- Languages including Pashto, Dari, Kurdish, Tigrinya, Somali.
