Interpreting

Our interpreters are experienced linguists trained in all areas of Consecutive, Simultaneous, and Virtual Remote Interpreting.

Consecutive Interpreting

In consecutive interpreting, the interpreter listens and waits for a natural pause before accurately interpreting the message into the requested language. This approach supports clarity, understanding, and smooth communication between all parties.

Simultaneous Interpreting

Used for conferences, public hearings, and large meetings, simultaneous interpreting allows audiences to hear the speaker in real time through wireless headsets. All necessary interpreting equipment is available through Lazar.

In Person Interpreting

We offer both consecutive and simultaneous interpreting on‑site at your meeting or event. Equipment such as assistive listening devices, two‑transmitter isolation booths, and a technician to manage the setup and operation are available upon request.

Remote Interpreting

Remote Interpreting has become one of our most requested services. Using video conferencing platforms such as Zoom, Microsoft Teams, GoToMeeting, and others, our interpreters provide full audio and video interpreting to connect clients and non‑English‑speaking participants wherever they are.

American Sign Language

American Sign Language (ASL) is a visual language with its own grammar and structure, different from English and understood across the world, while still containing regional variations and unique nuances. Our team of ASL interpreters brings the professionalism, skill, and sensitivity necessary to ensure effective communication — whether for a conference, meeting, medical appointment, classroom setting, or other service.

ADA Remediation

Making Your Content Accessible to Everyone

At Lazar, we believe language and accessibility go hand in hand. As a natural extension of our translation and localization expertise, we now offer full-scale ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) remediation services — helping businesses make their digital content, documents, and websites accessible to people with disabilities while staying compliant with federal and state accessibility laws.

Whether you need to remediate a single PDF or bring your entire digital ecosystem into WCAG compliance, our team combines linguistic precision with technical accessibility expertise to deliver content that works for every user, in every language.

Why ADA Compliance Matters

Digital accessibility isn’t just a legal requirement — it’s a commitment to inclusion. Under the ADA and Section 508, businesses, government agencies, and nonprofits are required to ensure their digital content is accessible to people with visual, auditory, cognitive, and motor disabilities.

Non-compliance can lead to costly lawsuits, reputational damage, and — most importantly — excludes millions of potential customers and users from accessing your content. With ADA-related litigation on the rise, proactive remediation isn’t just good practice; it’s a smart business decision.

Our ADA Remediation Services

Document Remediation

Document Remediation

We remediate PDFs, Word documents, PowerPoint presentations, and Excel files to meet WCAG 2.1/2.2 AA and Section 508 standards, including proper tagging, reading order, alt text, headings, and navigable structure — ensuring compatibility with screen readers and assistive technologies.

Document Remediation

Website Accessibility Audits & Remediation

Our specialists evaluate your website against WCAG success criteria, identify barriers to accessibility, and implement fixes across code, design, and content — from color contrast and keyboard navigation to ARIA labeling and form accessibility.

Document Remediation

Multimedia Accessibility

We provide closed captioning, transcription, and audio description services for video and audio content, ensuring your multimedia is accessible to users who are deaf, hard of hearing, blind, or low vision.

Document Remediation

Alternative Text & Image Descriptions

We write clear, contextually accurate alt text and long-form image descriptions that convey meaning to users relying on screen readers, without disrupting the visual experience for sighted users.

Multilingual Accessibility

Because accessibility shouldn’t stop at English, we bring our core strength — translation and localization — into every remediation project. We ensure that accessible content remains accessible after translation, maintaining proper structure, tagging, and language attributes across every language version.

Ongoing Compliance Support

Accessibility isn’t a one-time fix. We offer periodic audits, monitoring, and remediation retainer packages to help you stay compliant as your content evolves and standards are updated.

Our Process

  • Accessibility Audit – We assess your documents, website, or media against WCAG 2.1/2.2 and Section 508 standards.
  • Detailed Report – You receive a clear breakdown of accessibility issues, prioritized by severity and impact.
  • Remediation – Our accessibility specialists and linguists implement fixes, from code-level changes to document restructuring.
  • Quality Assurance & Testing – Every deliverable is tested with assistive technologies (screen readers, magnifiers, keyboard-only navigation) to confirm real-world usability.
  • Certification & Documentation – We provide a compliance summary and remediation report for your records.

Other Services

Braille

Lazar provides Braille versions of documents — including formatted electronic versions and embossed hard‑copy documents printed on specialized paper. We primarily work with transcribers certified by the Library of Congress, National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Disabled (NLS).

Localization

Localization adapts content instead of simply converting words from one language to another. This ensures your message is culturally meaningful, relevant, and effective — no matter the language.
