Disclaimer: BSL Legal is a collective of British Sign Language (BSL) interpreters and translators. All of our Sign Language interpreters are registered with an appropriate regulatory body (NRCPD or RBSLI) and have extensive experience of working in legal settings. Our approach is one of flexibility and transparency. We are not an agency so there are no overheads or agency costs. All fees and invoicing arrangements are negotiated direct with the interpreter you decide to work with.
