About Radio USA

Each month, I host a Russian-language radio program on Radio USA to discuss topics that matter to Russian-speaking individuals, attorneys, and professionals navigating the U.S. legal system. Through engaging interviews, I share practical insights into court interpreting, legal terminology, cultural nuances, and the role of a certified interpreter in ensuring accurate communication during legal proceedings. We dive into common legal situations, answer frequently asked questions, and provide guidance to help listeners better understand the American justice system. These conversations are designed to educate, inform, and build confidence in those who rely on professional language services, while offering attorneys and legal professionals a deeper appreciation of the value a qualified court interpreter brings to every case.

Polina translated for me on several occasions while representing a client who was most comfortable speaking in Russian. Polina was excellent – she was prompt, accurate, timely, and ensured that both my client and I were comfortable with our communications. She provided expert translation in court and did a stellar job. Polina is warm and helpful, and she is my first and only choice for Russian and French translation needs. Highly recommend!
