Prism Linguistics provides certified English document translation for USCIS and the courts, and English interpreters for hearings, medical appointments and immigration interviews in Naperville and across the United States, in person, by phone or by video.
Tell us the setting and where the speaker is from before you book: for English, as for most languages, the regional variety and the register of the room decide who should be assigned. Hospitals that receive federal funding must provide an interpreter at no cost to the patient; at USCIS the interpreter has to be neutral and precise rather than helpful. Where a court requires a certified or registered English interpreter, tell us the court and the case type and we confirm what that court will accept.
For an in-person assignment in Naperville we assign an English interpreter based in or near the city. Telephone and video interpreting can usually be arranged the same day. We serve courts, attorneys, hospitals, USCIS applicants and private individuals; we are a private agency, not a court-appointed vendor, and we say so up front.
Naperville straddles two counties. Most of the city is in DuPage County, whose cases are heard by the Eighteenth Judicial Circuit at the courthouse in Wheaton; the southeastern part falls in Will County, under the Twelfth Judicial Circuit. Illinois unified its trial courts in 1964, so there is no municipal court here; traffic through felony matters all run through the circuit courts. Prism Linguistics keeps a head office in New York and assigns a linguist based nearby whenever a hearing, deposition or appointment needs someone in the room.
Courts and attorneys come to Prism for rare languages other providers cannot supply, and Naperville School District 203 shows why: it counts over 84 home languages, with Spanish, Mandarin Chinese, Urdu, Hindi, Gujarati and Arabic the most common after English, and runs transitional bilingual and dual language programs. North Central College and Edward Hospital generate academic and clinical translation, and we prepare USCIS and immigration filings for law firms and private individuals.
Our only office is in New York. For in-person work in Naperville we assign an English interpreter who is based in or near the city, and the same English linguists cover the surrounding area:

Most English documents we translate are for USCIS filings and court use: birth, marriage and divorce records, diplomas and transcripts, police clearances and affidavits. Each is delivered as a complete English translation with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy. Stamps, seals and handwritten entries are translated, not skipped, and names are spelled to match the passport with any variant on the original noted for the adjudicator.
Every certified English translation is a complete, word-for-word rendering with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy, prepared to meet USCIS requirements. It is done from a clear scan, so a client in Naperville gets the same translator, the same price and the same turnaround as one anywhere else in the country.

Like American English, English itself is more often a translation target than a source for our US-based work, typically the destination for documents originally in another language and bound for USCIS, US courts, US universities, and other US institutions. For UK-English source documents being submitted to US institutions, we adapt spelling, date format, and idiom to American English by default; reverse adaptations (American to British) are also handled on request. Worldwide there are around 380 million native English speakers and another 1 billion who use English as a second language.
Yes. We deliver a complete English translation with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy, prepared to meet USCIS requirements, with stamps, seals and handwritten entries included and names spelled to match the passport.
Where a state certifies court interpreters in English and the court requires one, we assign a certified interpreter; otherwise courts use a registered or qualified interpreter and we match what the court will accept. We are a private agency, not a court-appointed vendor.
No. Our only office is in New York. English translation is done remotely from a scan, so location makes no difference to the document work. For in-person interpreting in Naperville we assign an English interpreter who is based in or near the city, and phone or video interpreting is available anywhere in the United States.
Every assignment follows our TEP workflow for written work – translation, editing, proofreading – with a free revision policy, and every interpreting booking is managed by a dedicated coordinator to meet regulatory and client requirements.
Our English interpreters are vetted for fluency, subject-matter expertise and professional ethics, and certified translation work is handled by certified translators who are members of provincial bodies under CTTIC.
We are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and 365 days a year – including American statutory holidays. Confidentiality is protected in line with HIPAA on every assignment.
