Indytranslations

Indytranslations provides translation, interpreting and language instruction from offices in Indianapolis and West Palm Beach. Its stated approach is that a translation has to convey the meaning, intent and tone of the original text for its new audience, which means working beyond a word-for-word swap. The company says that its clients range from businesses and organizations to individuals in legal and medical matters, and that it serves them wherever they are located.

Certified and medical translation

Certified translation is one of the main services. The company's translators are ATA certified, and it produces certified, medical, legal and business translations for documents where accuracy matters most. It runs in-house Spanish and French departments and works with all major world languages, so a single project can be handled by specialists in the language pair it needs.

Court-certified and conference interpreting

Interpreting covers several settings. Indytranslations provides conference interpreters, court-certified interpreters, telephone interpretation available around the clock, and sign language interpreting in American Sign Language. Clients can also rent simultaneous interpreting equipment, which lets an audience at a conference hear a speaker in several languages at once. Its site lists conference interpreting in Florida, Las Vegas and New York as well.

Transcription, subtitles and voice work

The audio and video side of the business covers transcription, subtitling and captioning, so that recorded material can be followed in another language or read by viewers who cannot hear it. Voiceover and dubbing services use foreign voice talent, and the company also handles foreign social media posting and multilingual page layout, along with desktop publishing for documents that have to look right in each language.

Language classes for companies and individuals

Instruction is offered in public and private classes, executive programs, language immersion courses and online lessons. The company runs a program for English for foreign workers, which helps staff who need English at work, and a children's program. Specialized Spanish courses and multicultural training for employees are also part of the teaching range.

Quality control and the wider client base

The company describes strict quality control measures that check each translation against industry standards and the client's own requirements. Clients include businesses in workers' compensation cases and court matters, which need translations that will be relied on in formal proceedings. The company presents its quality as the result of careful planning and execution, so that a translation is judged on whether it reads correctly for the audience it is meant for.
