L.A. Translation and Interpretation

L.A. Translation and Interpretation, Inc. is a Los Angeles-based language services company founded in 2003 by Dr. Junhui Joo, a court and medical certified interpreter and college professor. Operating under the tagline "Bridging Language Barriers," the firm positions itself as a provider of guaranteed quality language solutions in over 200 languages, with a focus on legal, medical, and business sectors. Its headquarters are located at 2975 Wilshire Blvd #640, Los Angeles, California.

The agency began as a language school with a mission to break down language barriers and develop one of the world's leading language schools. Today it continues to train interpreters and translators for courts, hospitals, and government agencies in languages such as Arabic, Armenian, Korean, Mandarin, and Spanish. L.A. Translation and Interpretation employs fewer than 49 people, and its minimum budget and average hourly rate are listed as "inquire" on its DesignRush profile.

The company offers translation services and transcription services, with particular strength in courtroom proceedings, medical consultations, and international business negotiations. It operates a one-year Certificate Program in Translation and Interpreting authorized by the State of California BPPVE, which has trained international students and equipped them for careers in translation and interpretation.

L.A. Translation and Interpretation serves the education and health care industries, working primarily with small and medium businesses. Representative clients include Dreamworks, Darren Silver & Associates, and the FBI, which are listed on the company's profile as evidence of its reach across entertainment, legal, and government work.

The agency holds a 4.7 Google rating from 40 reviews. Positive reviewers highlight fast, professional document translation and notarization, including a Korean birth certificate completed while the client had lunch and a Japanese document expedited on short notice. A law firm also reported using the agency's court-certified interpreters for over seven years in depositions and court trials without issues. Negative reviews mention price quoting inconsistencies, difficulty reaching staff by phone, and two complaints about professionalism and legal knowledge.

Results and portfolio examples are supported by client feedback rather than formal case studies. A DesignRush review from an undisclosed law firm owner praised the agency for translating an entire document very fast and in a professional way, recommending the service to friends and family. The combination of certified interpreters, expedited document handling, and state-authorized interpreter training makes the firm a practical choice for time-sensitive legal and personal document work.
