VIDEO PRESENTATION
Collusion or Collision? Where Mental Health and Legal Interpreting Intersect
by Roger Williams

Interpreting in legal and mental health settings can often require different skills and different perspectives. However, there are numerous situations which incorporate elements of both. Abuse investigations, competency determinations and insanity assessments, among others, require an understanding of both the norms and requirements of legal and mental health settings. Discover techniques that can be valuable to interpreters working where legal and mental health overlap, providing additional tools to assist in responding to the inherently difficult multiple demands.
