Book an interpreterThe language
German interpretation is mostly boardroom, M&A, patent litigation and technical audits. We cover both Swiss German (with an interpreter from Switzerland) and Austrian German as specialty dialect requests.
Typical German bookings
Sessions insurers book
Claims units usually book one of six sessions, and the cards link to the pages for them by video.
The interpreter joins the adjuster's video call with a claimant or policyholder who speaks another language.
Typical sessions
The interpreter is named at the start of the recording and interprets each question and answer in the first person.
Typical sessions
A medically credentialed interpreter joins the examiner's video exam or records interview, and works for neither the insurer nor the claimant.
Typical sessions

Typical sessions
A court-certified interpreter joins on the court reporter's link, and the court reporter swears the interpreter in as at a deposition.

Typical sessions
Interpreters at an insurer
Claims units use video when the claimant and the adjuster are in different places, for example when the claim is handled in one state and the claimant lives in another. Video also suits recorded statements and examinations that the examiner gives remotely. When no interpreter for the claimant's language works near the claimant, video is the other choice, because the interpreter can join from anywhere in the US.
The adjuster or investigator asks the questions and records what the claimant says. The claimant or policyholder describes the loss or injury in their own language. In an examination, the examining doctor takes the history and gives the instructions for the exam. The interpreter joins as one more participant and speaks to each side in their language.
The interpreter works for neither the insurer nor the claimant. Every question is interpreted in full for the claimant, and every answer in full for the adjuster, in the first person, so the file holds the claimant's own words. The interpreter does not explain coverage, comment on a claim decision or answer for the claimant, and keeps what they hear confidential.
Question and answer
Add the claim number, the claimant's name and the kind of session to the booking notes, so the interpreter can prepare. A recorded statement, an examination and a hearing on the same claim are separate sessions, and each is its own booking. Names of treating providers help the interpreter prepare for medical terms.
On-site, video or phone
Video suits most claim interviews and statements. Another setting is better when the adjuster has to be at the loss, or when the claimant has no video.
In person is the better choice for a home inspection after damage, or for an exam where the doctor needs to see the claimant.
On-Site Interpretation for Insurance CompaniesVideo fits interviews, statements and exams where the adjuster or examiner and the claimant are in different places.
Phone fits first reports and status calls, and recorded statements taken on the adjuster's recorded line.

Can't find it here?
Yes. Add the link to the booking, and the interpreter joins as a guest on Zoom, Microsoft Teams or Google Meet. Without a link, we create a Texliff room that opens in the browser.
Book a phone session for that claimant instead. Everyone dials in to the number in your confirmation, with no app or link.
No. A second language needs its own booking, and both bookings can share the same link.
By the hour, for the hours you book, and the total shows before you pay. Book enough time for a statement or an examination, because every question and answer is said twice and unused time is not refunded.

Yes. Court-certified and medically credentialed German interpreters are assigned to legal and clinical matters — Federal Court Interpreter Certification, state court rosters, CCHI / NBCMI for medical.
