Employment Law / Derecho Laboral
We wrote the training manual for translators and interpreters on this subject. Available at www.josevarelaibarra.gumroad.com
Derecho Penal / Criminal Law
We have translated or interpreted for federal and state courts, prosecutors as well as defense attorneys, law firms, and translation agencies. We have translated undercover tapes and interpreted jail interviews.
Immigration Law / Inmigración
We have translated immigration documents and interpreted for private clients from Mexico, Colombia, and Cuba. We have done both paid and pro bono work in this sector.
Spanish Expert Witness
We have researched, reported, and testified for both prosecutors and defense attorneys in rape and murder cases. Often translations or interpretations, even by those certified, have errors that if caught by an expert witness can alter the outcome of a penal or civil case.
