Prism Linguistics provides certified Persian document translation for USCIS and the courts, and Persian interpreters for hearings, medical appointments and immigration interviews in Burbank 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 Persian, 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 Persian interpreter, tell us the court and the case type and we confirm what that court will accept.
For an in-person assignment in Burbank we assign a Persian 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.
Burbank is in Los Angeles County. California unified its trial courts, so there are no municipal courts here; felonies, misdemeanors, infractions and civil matters arising in Burbank are all heard by the Los Angeles County Superior Court, most of them at the Burbank Courthouse in the North Central District. Prism works with courts, attorneys, doctors and private individuals across the area, providing court interpreters and certified translation for USCIS and immigration filings. Our head office is in New York, and a linguist based in or near Burbank is dispatched for in-person assignments.
Burbank Unified School District reports over fifty languages spoken by its families and arranges Spanish and Armenian interpreters for school meetings, reflecting the large Armenian community across Burbank and the eastern San Fernando Valley. Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center and the Walt Disney Company headquarters sit within the city and generate steady language work. Courts come to Prism above all for rare languages other providers cannot supply.
Our only office is in New York. For in-person work in Burbank we assign a Persian interpreter who is based in or near the city, and the same Persian linguists cover the surrounding area:

Most Persian 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 Persian 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 Burbank gets the same translator, the same price and the same turnaround as one anywhere else in the country.

Persian is the Western Iranian language known as Farsi in Iran, Dari in Afghanistan and Tajik in Tajikistan, with roughly 110 million speakers when all three are counted together. Iran and Afghanistan write it in the Perso-Arabic script; Tajikistan uses Cyrillic. The three standards share most of their grammar and formal vocabulary, so a Farsi speaker can read a Dari document, but everyday speech, pronunciation and official terminology differ enough that we assign interpreters by country. In the United States the largest Persian-speaking communities are Iranian, followed by Afghans resettled since 2021, and most translation work is Iranian shenasnameh booklets, Afghan tazkiras, degree certificates and asylum evidence.
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 Persian 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. Persian translation is done remotely from a scan, so location makes no difference to the document work. For in-person interpreting in Burbank we assign a Persian 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 Persian 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.
