Prism Linguistics provides certified English translation of Lithuanian civil records, diplomas and legal documents for USCIS, courts and employers, and Lithuanian interpreters for depositions, hearings and medical appointments in Evansville and across the United States.
Lithuanian Interpreters in Evansville
Our Lithuanian interpreters in Evansville are professional, experienced linguists who work in state courts, law offices and hospitals, and who know that the person who needs a Lithuanian interpreter is usually an elderly parent or a recent arrival facing a deposition rather than the relative who made the call.
Elderly post-war emigrants and their spouses are the ones who need a Lithuanian interpreter, as are recent arrivals in a deposition or a medical history where conversational English is not enough; the working-age generation rarely does. About 36,000 people spoke Lithuanian at home in the 2017-2021 American Community Survey, with the largest community by far in Illinois. No state runs a court certification exam in Lithuanian, so courts use a qualified Lithuanian interpreter, and we confirm with the court what it will accept before you book. We are a private agency, not a court-appointed vendor.
Many older Lithuanian speakers are also fluent in Russian, and an attorney sometimes books Russian because it is easier to find. For testimony we advise against it: a Lithuanian witness who learned Russian at school under occupation will not give evidence in it the way they would in Lithuanian, and the record shows the difference. Hospitals that take federal money must supply a Lithuanian interpreter at no cost; we can supply one by phone or video when the hospital cannot.
For an in-person assignment in Evansville we assign a Lithuanian 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.
Lithuanian Court, Medical and USCIS Interpreters in Evansville
Prism Linguistics supplies experienced Lithuanian interpreters in Evansville for depositions, divorce and civil hearings, medical appointments and USCIS interviews, in person, by phone or by video, together with certified Lithuanian translation of the records filed with those matters.
Evansville is the seat of Vanderburgh County, whose boundaries match Indiana's First Judicial Circuit. The Vanderburgh Circuit Court and the Vanderburgh Superior Court, a court of general jurisdiction, both sit in the Civic Center courts building; more serious felonies go to the Circuit Court, with lower-level felonies and many civil cases in the Superior Court. Prism supplies interpreters and certified translation for those courts, USCIS and immigration filings, attorneys, doctors, hospitals and private individuals.
The Evansville Vanderburgh School Corporation reaches families through a messaging platform that translates into more than 150 languages. Spanish, Haitian Creole and Marshallese are the languages most requested across the tri-state area, and the Haitian Center of Evansville provides interpreting alongside English classes. Deaconess Health System and the University of Evansville add further demand. Our only office is in New York; for in-person work we assign a linguist based near Evansville. Courts come to Prism for rare languages such as Marshallese that other providers cannot supply.

Lithuanian to English Translation Services in Evansville
Certified Lithuanian to English translation makes up most of Prism's Lithuanian document work: birth, marriage and death extracts from the civil status register, older bilingual certificates, diplomas and transcripts for H-1B filings and police clearances, each with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy from a qualified Lithuanian translator.
Since 1 January 2017 Lithuania no longer issues birth, marriage or death certificates. The Civil Registry Office (Civilinės metrikacijos skyrius) of the municipality issues an extract from the civil status register instead, in a form set by the Minister of Justice, so a Lithuanian applicant ordering a fresh copy holds an extract while an older sibling holds a Soviet-era or 1990s certificate, often bilingual Lithuanian and Russian. USCIS accepts both; the Lithuanian translator has to label each correctly and reproduce the issuing authority as printed rather than modernising it.
The surname tells you whether she is married. Lithuania is the only country in Europe whose official feminine surnames still mark marital status: Kazlauskas has a wife Kazlauskienė and a daughter Kazlauskaitė. A US record or a passport may carry the husband's masculine form, and an adjudicator who sees three spellings for one family asks questions. We keep the form printed on each document, match the passport for the applicant and add a translator's note explaining the Lithuanian endings. Diplomas and transcripts from Lithuanian universities for H-1B filings, and police clearances, make up most of the rest.
Every certified Lithuanian 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 Evansville gets the same translator, the same price and the same turnaround as one anywhere else in the country.

About the Lithuanian Language
Lithuanian is one of the oldest living Indo-European languages, linguists often note that it retains grammatical features lost in every other living member of the family, including Latin. About 3 million people speak it, mostly in Lithuania. The Lithuanian-American community is well-established, with the largest concentrations in Chicago, New York, Boston, and Cleveland, and significant post-WWII displaced-persons roots. Our Lithuanian translation work is mostly genealogy and dual-citizenship documents (Lithuania allows descent-based citizenship), USCIS civil records, and the academic transcripts of Lithuanian students and professionals on US visas.
Lithuanian Interpreting in Evansville: FAQs
My Lithuanian birth record is an extract, not a certificate. Will USCIS accept the translation?
Yes. Since 2017 Lithuanian civil registry offices issue extracts from the civil status register in place of certificates, and USCIS treats the extract as the official birth record. We translate it in full, name the issuing office as printed and deliver a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy prepared to meet USCIS requirements.
Why does my mother's surname differ from my father's on the Lithuanian documents?
Lithuanian surnames change ending by gender and marital status, so a married woman carries -iene and an unmarried daughter -aite or -yte on the same family name. We keep each form as printed, spell the applicant's name to match the passport, and add a translator's note so an adjudicator can see that the three forms belong to one family.
Do you have an office in Evansville?
No. Our only office is in New York. Lithuanian translation is done remotely from a scan, so location makes no difference to the document work. For in-person interpreting in Evansville we assign a Lithuanian interpreter who is based in or near the city, and phone or video interpreting is available anywhere in the United States.
