Service limits
I speak fluent Spanish and conversational/intermediate Portuguese. I do not advertise certified, sworn, medical, or court interpretation. Arabic-language work requires coordination with qualified language professionals; I do not claim Arabic fluency. Translation needs vary with the subject and intended use.
About the example
Use a meeting plan to identify your questions and the communication arrangements that would help you participate.
Language support during administrative representation
I may provide nonattorney administrative representation to a client who speaks Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, or another language when the applicable rules allow it and adequate interpretation is arranged. Speaking a language does not itself authorize representation.
The agency’s rules, a valid appointment where required, and suitable language support must each be addressed. We discuss the setting before agreeing to representation.
