Interrogation Room

We take Evidence Security seriously.

It's very important to maintain chain of custody records and ensure the data is viable for in court use at all times. As a result, we've implemented systems that you can depend on not interfering with your case. Our goal is to provide you the service you need while maintaining the credibility of your evidence at all times.

We use biometric locks on our facility doors to ensure we know exactly who has access to our work areas. In addition, our data center and evidence closet is protected by biometric security with limited access to only critical evidence certified personnel. State of the art firewalls and air-gap solutions separate evidence systems from business. Integrated with our commercial grade high security alarm system, multiple video cameras with off site recording monitors the entire facility ensure that any attempts to gain access to your data is recorded.

Image Don't play games with the other guys. While others may be able to perform the work, they don't have the infrastructure and processes to stand behind it and prove to a court of law that your evidence was handled properly and securely.

Law Enforcement Agencies prefer our Interpreter and Translation Services

Our clients have made Professional Linguistics a leader in the translation industry because of our expertise and reputation with handling evidence and other critical data. All of our interpreters and translators are trained on chain of custody, evidence handling, etiquette and ethics to eliminate any chance for mishandling evidence or interpreter failures. Evidence is critical to the case and a mistake has a huge potential for a negative impact - and our interpreters and translators are trained to keep that risk to an absolute minimum.

Officers Prefer Our Consecutive and Simultaneous Interpreting

Don't take the chance of getting an interpreter without the skills needed to properly interpret in an official law enforcement setting. Our simultaneous interpreters are trained to speak while you're speaking, directly into the person's ear with minimal disruption in the courtroom. However for an interrogation setting, it is beneficial to use consecutive interpreting to allow for the speaker to pause while the interpreter completes the message. Everyone hears what is said, including any recording devices in the room. With Professional Linguistics, you ensure that the correct style is used when handling a law enforcement assignment.

Law Enforcement Translations in Court Ready Format

All of our translations from DVD, VHS, or audio cassette are translated and transcribed in a court ready format for immediate use with in a courtroom setting. You can provide our deliverables directly to the defense as required, or reference our translations while on trial. Our court ready format is approved for use in both state and federal courts, and has been accepted and utilized in court cases all across the country.
 

Audio Equipment

Although optional, we recommend using our audio interpreting equipment at your event. These specialized devices are used to allow non-English speaking persons to privately hear the interpretation audio with minimal disruption to the event. Professional quality equipment for our interpreter and up to 7 listeners are available in both daily or weekly rental charges.

Simultaneous Interpretation Equipment

Using this equipment, our interpreters can employ the simultaneous interpretation process to allow people to communicate directly across language and cultural boundaries. This specialized technology uses a transmitter on the interpreter to provide the interpretation to your guests. The interpretation is broadcast via a wireless system to the users who listen on small receivers with earphones. The receivers are multi-channel so the users can select the channel that corresponds to the language that they wish to hear.

Whisper Interpretation

While in the same room or a nearby area with an audio feed, the interpreter whispers into a microphone while your guests listen on personal receivers from anywhere within range of the transmitter (up to 150 feet or 46 meters). This type of interpretation is ideal for a courtroom setting, corporate meetings, or community service groups where maximum flexibility is required.

Quality Interpreters

Our interpreters are highly skilled bilingual (or multilingual) professionals.  Based on the characteristics of each task, our interpreters are carefully selected for each job.  This ensures we get the right area of expertise and the highest linguistic quality for each assignment that we provide.
