What to know about court calls with a phone interpreter
When phone is used
A court uses the phone for short calls where nobody needs to see a document, such as a status conference or a scheduling call, and only where its rules allow it. Phone also reaches a party who has no video or lives far away. The interpreter dials in from anywhere in the US, so a language nobody near the courthouse speaks can still be booked. A hearing with testimony or exhibits is better held on video or in the courtroom.
Who is on the line
The judge runs the call, and the attorneys dial in with the parties. The party who speaks another language dials in from any phone, and the interpreter joins the same call. Once everyone is on the line, the interpreter can bring a third party onto it. In a mediation program call, the mediator takes the judge's place.

CourtInterpreterParty
The interpreter's role
The interpreter makes the call as clear to the party as it is to everyone else. Nobody can see who is about to speak, so the interpreter keeps the turns clear, and each part is interpreted in full once the speaker pauses. They are neutral, keep the call confidential, and do not explain, advise or give opinions.
On a status call
JudgePauseInterpretedPartyInterpreted
Before the call
Add the case name, the names of the parties and the judge's name to the booking notes, and the interpreter reads them before the call. Nothing can be shown on a phone line, so any document the call will go through should reach the participants beforehand. Give the dial-in number and access code to every participant ahead of the call.
On-site, video or phone
Choosing between phone, video and on-site for court proceedings
Phone suits the shortest calls, and only where the court allows it. Anything with testimony or exhibits belongs in another setting.
On-site
Book an interpreter in the courthouse for a hearing with testimony, or any hearing where the court wants the parties present.
On-Site Interpretation for Courts
Video (VRI)
Video fits a hearing where a party or a witness has to be seen, or where exhibits are shared on screen.
Video-Remote Interpretation for CourtsPhone (OPI)
Phone fits a status call, a scheduling call or a short appearance where the court allows phone.

Questions from courts about phone interpreters
The ones we hear most often, answered by our dispatch and project-management teams.
Can't find it here?
01Does the court need to set up the line?
No. The court can use its own conference line, or you can share the dial-in number and access code from our confirmation.
02Who decides whether a call can be held by phone?
Each court decides when remote interpreting is allowed. Tell us the court and the kind of call when you book.
03What if the call needs video after all?
We can change the booking to a video session, subject to the interpreter's availability.
04Do the parties need an app?
No. Everyone dials in from any phone, with no app or link.
05How is a phone booking priced?
Phone bookings are priced by the time you book, and the total shows before you pay. Add time for the interpreting itself, because every part is said twice, and unused time is not refunded.
06Which languages can you interpret by phone for a court?
70 languages, into and out of English. Spanish, Mandarin, Arabic, Portuguese and Vietnamese are among the easiest to schedule, and rare languages such as Burmese or Pashto need more notice.
07Are your Bosnian interpreters certified?
Yes. Court-certified and medically credentialed Bosnian interpreters are assigned to legal and clinical matters — Federal Court Interpreter Certification, state court rosters, CCHI / NBCMI for medical. For community, educational and corporate settings we assign professionally trained interpreters matched to the subject.
