Suite 1410<\/p>\n<p>While much training is available to explore the theory and best practices of legal interpreting, there are few opportunities for interpreters to learn the skills portion of the legal interpreting specialization. The focus of this session is bridging the gap between theory and application in legal training. Attendees will be led through an in-depth analysis of commonly encountered legal text. This analysis, paired with practical tips on navigating the texts, will help them develop their own interpretations that can be used in a variety of legal situations. A heavy emphasis will be placed on conceptually accurate, culturally rich interpretation of phrases and concepts commonly encountered in the legal realm.
