Washington Lawyer

April 2009

With the increase of immigrant population, courts are facing a shortage of qualified and well-trained interpreters to help those who don’t speak the language navigate the legal world. Suzan Kern, immigration lawyer with the firm’s Washington office and former court interpreter, says interpretation is not just word substitution, it requires cultural understanding and technique.

Kern’s practice focuses exclusively on immigration and nationality law.
