"My passion is legal interpreting, and I am delighted to collaborate with AIT in providing an overview of the English legal and court system as well as police procedures of detention and charge from the interpreter’s point of view. The webinars will include useful information for those interested in following the path of freelance legal interpreters. I will often refer with examples to my experience as a court and police interpreter."
