About Us

Star Interpreting is one of the oldest and most-respected translation agencies. It was founded by Estrella Jacobowitz in 1980.

Over the past 25 years we have continued to expand our staff, resources and range of professional services.

Today we have a core team of full-time employees and over 400 interpreters and translators who work with us on a regular basis on tasks ranging from legal documents to voice-overs and films.

Our full-time interpreters and translators are carefully screened, and highly qualified. They include Fulbright scholars, professors, authors and professionals with a variety of special skills and backgrounds.

For difficult dialects we have extensive contacts in the foreign-language communities in the tri-state metropolitan New York area.

What sets us apart is our rigorous attention to client needs. Legal, insurance, pharmaceutical, medical, business – all of our clients receive deadline sensitive, personal attention.

Unlike many firms we are delighted to take on rush jobs (emergency or short-term interpreting services) as well as long-term client relationships.
