Scheduling Legal Interpreters for Depositions Just Got Easier

Legal proceedings demand precision, especially when language is involved. From depositions to hearings and beyond, working with limited English proficient (LEP) individuals means your law firm or agency needs fast, compliant access to professional interpreters.

Until recently, booking a qualified legal interpreter for an urgent deposition often meant time-consuming phone calls, manual coordination, and unreliable outcomes. But with the right interpreter scheduling software in place, that’s no longer the case.

In this blog, we’ll walk you through how a modern interpreter management platform like AdAstraConnect simplifies the process, from scheduling to compliance, so you can focus on what matters: the case.

Why Interpreter Scheduling for Legal Depositions Has Been So Challenging?

Legal interpretation has historically been bogged down by:

• Manual processes that delay assignments

• Double-booked interpreters due to lack of visibility

• No-shows or mismatched languages from third-party vendors

• Data security concerns with sensitive case files

• Disjointed tracking across platforms or spreadsheets

These issues result in missed deadlines, frustrated attorneys, and compliance risks—especially in high-stakes environments like immigration court, asylum interviews, and criminal depositions.

Enter: AdAstraConnect, your complete interpreter SaaS platform built for legal interpretation needs.
