Prism Linguistics provides certified English translation of Irish-language (Gaeilge) documents and recordings, and Irish interpreters for court, estate and immigration matters in Hollywood and across the United States.
Irish to English Translation Services in Hollywood
Certified Irish translation into English, for USCIS, an estate or a citizenship application, is prepared by an experienced Irish translator who reads a register entry in Irish and connects it to the English name on a passport, and each translation is delivered with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy.
Irish means Irish Gaelic here, not the English of Ireland, and not Scottish Gaelic, which has its own page. Irish civil registration runs in both English and Irish: births, marriages and deaths are held by the General Register Office in Roscommon, and a certificate for use outside the EU can be reissued by the GRO with an authentication stamp. Most certificates need no translation because the entries are in English. The Irish-language ones come from Gaeltacht families and from people who registered in Irish by choice, and they carry the recurring trap: the same person is Seán Ó Briain on the register and John O'Brien on the passport.
We translate the Irish entries in full, spell names to match the passport and note the Irish form on the original so an adjudicator can connect the two. The other Irish work we see is transcription and translation of Irish-language recordings, letters and wills for estate, genealogy and citizenship-by-descent files, delivered with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy.
Every certified Irish 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 Hollywood gets the same translator, the same price and the same turnaround as one anywhere else in the country.

Hollywood lies in Broward County, in Florida's Seventeenth Judicial Circuit. Felony, family, probate and larger civil matters go to the Broward County Circuit Court, while misdemeanors, traffic, evictions and small claims fall to the Broward County Court. Hollywood residents are not all sent downtown: the county's South Regional Courthouse is in Hollywood itself, one of four Clerk of Courts sites alongside the central courthouse in Fort Lauderdale and the regional courthouses in Deerfield Beach and Plantation.
Broward County Public Schools translates registration packets, report cards, the Code of Student Conduct and parent conference forms into Haitian Creole, Portuguese and Spanish, its three predominant family languages. Memorial Regional Hospital and Joe DiMaggio Children's Hospital, both in the city, generate constant medical interpreting. Prism Linguistics works from a single New York office and assigns a linguist based near Hollywood for in-person court, hospital and USCIS-compliant certified translation work. Courts come to us for the rare languages other providers cannot supply.
Certified Irish Translation in Hollywood
Certified Irish translation in Hollywood is a rarer request than expected, since the GRO prints its certificates bilingually. What needs certifying is the record kept in Irish alone: a school record, a deed of family settlement or a grandparent's letter of consent from Connemara. The Irish translator also flags surname forms: a daughter registered as Ní Bhriain and a mother as Uí Bhriain are both O'Brien on a US form.
Irish Court Document Translation in Hollywood
Irish court document translation in Hollywood is mostly probate work: a will or codicil in Irish by a Gaeltacht testator, a letter in Irish offered as evidence of intent or domicile, or a recorded interview with a witness who answered in Irish. The translator transcribes any recording, translates it line by line and signs a declaration counsel can file with the exhibit, with legal terms matched to Irish court usage.
Irish Interpreters in Hollywood
Our Irish interpreters in Hollywood are experienced, professional linguists who work in courts, depositions, hospitals and USCIS field offices, and who are booked when a hearing, an estate or an interview needs Irish interpreting done exactly rather than approximately.
Almost every Irish speaker also speaks English, so be clear about why you need the interpreter. At the 2022 census about 20,000 people in the Gaeltacht spoke Irish daily, and effectively all of them are bilingual. Irish interpreting here is a party who chooses to give evidence in Irish, a hearing where a recording or earlier testimony is in Irish, or an elderly Gaeltacht relative who is more exact in Irish than in English. Munster, Connacht and Ulster Irish differ in pronunciation and vocabulary, so we ask which region the speaker comes from. No state runs a court certification exam in Irish, so courts use a qualified Irish interpreter, usually by phone or video. Hospitals that take federal funds must provide an interpreter at no cost if a patient asks. At a USCIS interview the Irish interpreter renders each answer as given.
For an in-person assignment in Hollywood we assign an Irish 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.

About the Irish Language
Irish, also called Irish Gaelic or Gaeilge, is the first official language of Ireland, though English is the dominant everyday language. Around 1.8 million people claim some Irish ability, with roughly 70,000 daily speakers concentrated in Gaeltacht (Irish-speaking) regions on the west coast. The Irish-American community is one of the largest ancestry groups in the United States, but very few are active Irish speakers. Our Irish translation work is mostly cultural and genealogical, Irish-language birth, marriage, and church records for descendants applying for Irish citizenship by descent, plus the occasional Gaeltacht-area document or cultural-association paperwork.

Irish Translation in Hollywood: FAQs
My Irish birth certificate has the names in Irish but my passport is in English. Can you translate it for USCIS?
Yes. We translate the Irish-language entries in full with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy, spell the names to match the passport and note the Irish form shown on the certificate, which is what an officer needs to connect the two records.
Do you send Irish or Scottish Gaelic interpreters?
They are different languages. This page is for Irish (Gaeilge); for Scottish Gaelic use our Gaelic page. No state certifies court interpreters in Irish, so courts use a qualified Irish interpreter. We are a private agency, not a court-appointed vendor.
Do you have an office in Hollywood?
No. Our only office is in New York. Irish translation is done remotely from a scan, so location makes no difference to the document work. For in-person interpreting in Hollywood we assign an Irish interpreter who is based in or near the city, and phone or video interpreting is available anywhere in the United States.
