The glory of justice and the majesty of law are created not just by the Constitution - nor by the courts - nor by the officers of the law - nor by the lawyers - but by the men and women who constitute our society - who are the protectors of the law as they are themselves protected by the law.

-Robert Kennedy

因为不了解澳洲的法律体系，

同学们在备考CCL时面对晦涩的legal对话常常会非常痛苦，

偏偏口译员最重要的一块工作就是和法律有关。

今天小柠檬就为大家带来legal话题的背景知识，

供备考CCL的同学参考。

The legal and medico/legal domain is an area where interpreters provide a crucial service, because courts and tribunals require professional, independent and confidential interpreting services in dealing with non-English speaking applicants, witnesses, defendants and respondents. As well as interpreting at trials and hearings, interpreters also provide language services in other court related services and processes such as case conferences, counselling sessions and mediation conferences.

口译人员在法务领域的作用非常重要：在仲裁庭和法庭上，许多不会说英文的申请人、目击者、被告和原告都需要口译员进行准确、专业又独具保密性的翻译工作。同时，除了在法庭上，其他法务场所也需要口译员提供翻译服务。

 1. accurate, objective and impartial interpreting services

准确、客观、公正的翻译服务

2. pre-existing relationship between the non-English speaking clients and the professionals.

3. equivalence given the field’s strict rules of evidence and procedure

4. maintain professional distance from their clients
