Our ASL interpreting services
We provide American Sign Language (ASL) interpreting across industries and settings, always with the same goal: making communication inclusive, accurate and accessible!
- Healthcare & hospitals: ASL is essential in medical appointments, emergency rooms, mental health services and patient care to meet legal requirements and ensure understanding.
- Education: From schools and universities to training programmes, ASL interpreting supports ASL-using students, parents and educators.
- Corporate & workplace: Meetings, interviews, onboarding and training sessions are more inclusive with ASL interpreters present.
- Legal & government services: Court hearings, police interviews, council meetings and public consultations often require ASL by law.
- Events & conferences: Live or virtual events become accessible for all attendees with real-time ASL interpreting.
- Media & cultural spaces: ASL for theatre, broadcasts, online content, and museum tours helps expand audience participation.
Wherever communication matters, ASL interpreting ensures communities can engage fully and equally.
When ASL is essential (or strongly advised)
In the United States, there are many situations where providing American Sign Language (ASL) interpreting is required under law, or very strongly recommended to ensure inclusion and legal compliance.
International companies can also use ASL interpreting strategically to reach audiences.
- ADA – effective communication: Under Title II (state/local government services) and Title III (public accommodations and private businesses) of the Americans with Disabilities Act, entities must provide auxiliary aids and services — which include qualified sign language interpreters — when necessary to ensure effective communication with people who are D/deaf or hard of hearing.
- Healthcare & patient rights: Healthcare providers subject to federal law (e.g., those operating under Medicare/Medicaid, or under Section 1557 of the Affordable Care Act) may be required to arrange ASL interpretation so patients can give informed consent and fully understand diagnoses, treatment and their rights.
- Employment & workplace: Under the ADA, employees or applicants with hearing disabilities are entitled to reasonable accommodations. which may include ASL if they are ASL users.
- Public services & legal settings: Courts, government agencies, public meetings, law enforcement interactions etc., when interacting with D/deaf or hard of hearing people, must ensure communication is equally effective, which also means providing ASL interpreters.
- Advised for community events, company-wide town halls or public announcements.
