Why Legal Interpreting Demands Specialists
Legal proceedings leave no room for ambiguity. A mistranslated statement in court can change the outcome of a case. An unclear explanation of rights during a police interview can invalidate a procedure. Imprecise interpreting of contract terms at a notary appointment can create liabilities for all parties.
Legal interpreters on Tolk2Go are certified and officially sworn. They understand legal terminology, courtroom protocols, procedural requirements and the ethical standards that legal interpreting demands — including strict neutrality and confidentiality.
With 1600+ interpreters across 190+ languages, Tolk2Go gives lawyers, courts, notaries and legal departments fast access to qualified interpreters without the back-and-forth of traditional booking processes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are all legal interpreters on Tolk2Go sworn?
Tolk2Go works with both sworn (Rbtv-registered) and non-sworn interpreters. Sworn interpreters are clearly marked on their profiles. For court hearings, police interviews and notarial deeds, always select an interpreter with sworn status — this is a legal requirement in the Netherlands.
Can I book the same interpreter for an entire case?
Yes. If an interpreter is familiar with your case and client, you can rebook them for follow-up hearings, consultations and related proceedings. This ensures continuity and avoids repeated briefings on case context.
How quickly can I get a legal interpreter for an urgent hearing?
The platform is available 24/7 and most bookings are confirmed within minutes. For common languages, same-day availability is often possible. For immediate phone-based legal consultations, phone interpreting connects you right away.
What does a legal interpreter cost?
Interpreters set their own rates on Tolk2Go. You see the full price — interpreter rate plus Tolk2Go mediation fee — before confirming. Click the orange question mark icon for a detailed breakdown. Rates vary by language, sworn status and assignment type. There are no hidden costs.
Is remote interpreting accepted in court?
Remote interpreting (phone or video) is accepted in some court proceedings, especially for short hearings and pro forma sessions. However, many courts prefer or require on-site interpreting for substantive hearings. Check with the court in advance, or book on-site to be safe.
Can I use Tolk2Go for immigration and asylum cases?
Yes. Tolk2Go provides sworn interpreters for IND hearings, asylum interviews, residence permit applications and immigration legal consultations. Many interpreters on the platform have specific experience with immigration proceedings and are familiar with the associated terminology and procedures.
Do you work with law firms on a structural basis?
Yes. Law firms with regular interpreting needs can arrange structural collaboration with Tolk2Go, including preferred interpreter matching, dedicated account support and streamlined billing. Contact us to discuss your firm's requirements.
