MasterWord Services is available to provide court-licensed interpreters and independently-qualified interpreters for languages in which there are no license holders.

In addition, MasterWord Services Language Services Management System (LSMS), allows for online order generation, real-time customizable online reporting, and drill-down functionality that lets users easily manage requests, finances, and work order status.

Law Firms

MasterWord Services, Inc.™ understands the need to readily respond to client requests with solutions that maintain flexibility in their implementation. Document prioritization and classification are primary steps in approaching large legal projects. The development of glossaries of terminology, style guide protocols, and qualified technical advisors assures that documents are translated according to schedule—in the highest quality—with cultural clarification wherever needed. When necessary, court-licensed and technical interpreters are brought into the project team. The interpretation team reviews relevant documents and case histories in order to ensure that the most accurate and reliable interpretation can be provided during the real-world environment of the working courtroom.

In addition, MasterWord Services, Inc.™ also provides deposition support by providing qualified professionals with industry-specific backgrounds that reflect the subject matter being investigated. Interpretation during the deposition is transparent, allowing the legal team to communicate seamlessly with all parties involved. MasterWord also provides multilingual transcription and translation of the interpreted session.
