Prism Linguistics — Translation & Interpreting Across Canada
Headquartered in Hamilton, Ontario, Prism Linguistics Inc handles certified translation, court and medical interpreting, and document localization for law firms, hospitals, Canadian universities and colleges, newcomers to Canada, government bodies and corporate clients in every province and territory. Every project is handled by a qualified human linguist — not machine output, not "AI-assisted" shortcuts on documents bound for IRCC, Canadian courts, or credential evaluators such as WES Canada.
One number, 326 languages, 60-minute written quotes. Call +1 (888) 693-6123, email info@prismlinguistics.ca, or upload a document for a binding price within the hour.

Why Canadian Clients Choose Prism Linguistics

Translation, independent Editing by a second bilingual reviewer, then Proofreading. Three sets of trained eyes on every certified project.
