Benefits of Choosing a Bilingual Law Firm

No translation errors

From the moment that you call our office, you will be speaking to a customer service representative that speaks your preferred language, either English or Spanish.  This is important as you’re trying to tell your story to someone that will transfer the information to someone who could be representing you. Therefore, you want someone that will understand everything you’re saying from the very beginning to have a smooth process. 

In addition, there will be no trouble with testimonies and a need to have a translator. Hiring a bilingual firm guarantees that there is no wrong translation, especially when it deals with the importance of being able to tell the plaintiff’s story correctly. Even if you are an English speaker, if there is a witness that happens to only speak Spanish, you will have someone on your side that will be able to communicate effectively with that individual. 

Although you could pay for an interpreter, language is a funny thing. There are a lot of nuances in language, especially in the Spanish language. Here at The Carlson Law Firm, we have attorneys that are fluent and native Spanish-speaking attorneys that will be able to distinguish the context of what you’re trying to say and will be able to represent your story the way that you are wanting it to be told.

In addition, our bilingual attorney can help with important documents, such as medical documents, thank you letters, etc. The ability to translate and overall experience here at The Carlson Law Firm will be easier when you have someone speaking the language you are most comfortable in.  

A better understanding of your story

Here at The Carlson Law Firm, we understand the importance of comprehending your story to best tell it. This includes your background and culture to find and understand the best way to help you out.

However, here at The Carlson Law Firm, we have attorneys and legal assistants that speak English and Spanish. Therefore, there is no need to worry if you happen to use slang.

It’s best to form trust this way 

If a client and an attorney can speak the same language, it makes the process of any case a lot smoother to understand the needs of the client without needing a translator. There is no need to be worried about falling victim to laws and regulations that you don’t understand.
