Greek Interpretation

Hire a Greek Interpreter

Greek interpreters for depositions, arbitration and hearings, for shipping and commercial negotiations, and for hospital and immigration appointments. Greek matters in our practice are commercial and litigation shaped, often with a maritime or estate angle, and the speaker may be Cypriot rather than mainland Greek, which changes vocabulary and idiom enough to matter on the record.

Why Kaplan

Greek Interpretation Matched to the Speaker and the Setting

Shipping, Estates and Injury Cases

Most Greek matters we staff are commercial: maritime and shipping disputes, insurance, estate and probate matters with heirs in Greece, and personal injury cases with Greek-speaking parties. The interpreter has to carry commercial and legal register in both directions, and we brief on the vocabulary before the first session.

Cypriot Greek Is Matched, Not Assumed

Cypriot Greek differs from standard Greek in vocabulary, pronunciation and idiom. A mainland interpreter can follow a Cypriot witness, but loose rendering of a Cypriot form on a sworn record is the kind of thing that gets challenged later. We ask where the speaker is from at intake and match accordingly.

Registered, With the Packet Sent Ahead

Greek is not one of California's twelve certified spoken languages. Greek interpreters credential through the registered path, and for depositions and hearings we staff registered interpreters and send the credential packet to chambers in advance so the question is settled before the day.

FAQs

Common Questions About Greek Interpretation

Are Greek interpreters court certified in California?

Greek is not one of the twelve certified spoken languages in California; Greek interpreters credential through the registered path, which requires the written exam and the oral proficiency exam in English (courts.ca.gov/2695.htm). For depositions and hearings we staff registered interpreters and send the credential packet ahead so the court can rule on it before the day. See our court-certified interpreters page for how certified and registered differ.

Do you cover Greek for depositions and arbitration?

Yes. Greek assignments in our practice are mostly maritime, shipping and commercial disputes, estate matters and personal injury cases with Greek-speaking parties, onsite or by video with witnesses in Greece or Cyprus. See our deposition interpreters page for the read-back and exhibit conventions.

Do your Greek interpreters handle Cypriot Greek?

Yes. Cypriot Greek differs from standard Greek in vocabulary, pronunciation and some idiom, and a Cypriot witness may use forms a mainland interpreter would render loosely. We ask where the speaker is from at intake and match accordingly.

Can you provide Greek interpreters for business meetings and shipping companies?

Yes. Shipping, maritime insurance, hospitality and real estate are the commercial settings where Greek comes up most. We staff consecutive interpreters for meetings and negotiations and simultaneous teams with equipment for larger sessions, and brief the interpreter on the vocabulary beforehand.

Where do you provide Greek interpreters?

Onsite in California and in New York, where Astoria in Queens is one of the largest Greek communities in the country, and by video remote nationwide. For New York matters see our legal interpreters in New York.

How much notice do you need for a Greek interpreter?

Greek is a small bench for us, with about ten interpreters across our network. A week's notice is safe for scheduled in-person work; remote assignments can usually be filled sooner. Check availability or call (833) 547-7770.

Do you interpret Greek for medical appointments and immigration matters?

Yes. Hospital consultations, independent medical examinations and USCIS interviews are regular Greek assignments, most often for older patients and family petitions. For immigration work see our immigration and asylum support page.

Can you translate Greek documents as well?

Yes, as separate written work from the interpreter. Our certified Greek document translation covers civil records, contracts, shipping documents and exhibits, with certificates of accuracy accepted by courts and USCIS.
