Quelques références sur les services de Diane…

Excellent translation. Responded professionally & kindly to a 1/2 crazed (me) client, pressured by a deadline that had life impacting consequences! Thank you. Satisfactory rating by native speaker of the target language. The Consul General thought that translating the company names went a bit far but accepted all translated materials without other comment. Excellent responsiveness.

I [a French and English interpreter] do want to thank you for your support [as a Paralegal] before and during the deposition. You have a difficult job and many different responsibilities. I really appreciated the few notes and comments on terminology you took the time to offer me. Some of your points were wonderfully subtle!

I just received word about the commendation you received from our client. This is my largest client, billing over a million dollars a year. It is professionals like you that keep our clients…coming and staying with Language Line. I want to express my appreciation and gratitude for the excellent job you do on a day to day basis. Thank you.

Diane is an extremely personable woman. She is very warm, has a great sense of humor and can at the same time command respect from her students. I have met few teachers who exude such a sense of enthusiasm for their subject and for life in general. Her students have learned excellent oral skills from her teaching and both took the fourth-year French Language Advanced Placement Examination. She also tutored other students from this private school who were having academic problems. Both the students and the parents have been very complimentary about her work as a tutor.

I enjoyed the experience of working with you; I and others were satisfied by your services; I get value for the money and/or your prices are within my budget; I trust your style, your work, you follow my instructions; you demonstrate patience and courtesy. I would use your services again. You can use my name as a referral.

Dear ‘Dee-Ann’: You have been a blessing in a very difficult, most complicated and confidential situation. You are the epitome of an interpreter as opposed to a translator. You express feeling, understanding and diplomacy–rather than just words. You have been a part of an extremely vital set of episodes in several of our lives and our business. I thank you very much.

Not only have I found Diane to be completely fluent in French (both with regard to translating documents and also speaking to various French witnesses), but I hasten to emphasize that I have also found her to be most responsible, intelligent and hard working…during various depositions, Diane has been the individual who has often helped the French nationals and the certified interpreters better express themselves in either English or French.

am a bilingual attorney and I have been practicing law in California since 1984. Even though I have lived in the United States since childhood, French is my native language and I read it, speak it and understand it fluently. In September of 1993, French clients of mine came to San Diego to participate as a party in a binding arbitration proceeding. I needed the services of a professional interpreter to interpret during these complex and delicate proceedings. We requested the services of Diane Goullard who was able to assist us on very short notice. As one of the attorneys in this proceeding I had the opportunity to observe Diane Goullard interpret simultaneously for the parties. She interpreted for several days, 8 hours each day into this matter on very short notice and with no opportunity to prepare herself for the topics which were being discussed. Her style and demeanor were most professional. I was impressed with her abilities. I can attest to the accuracy and competence with which she interpreted throughout the entire proceeding. I would definitely use and feel very comfortable highly recommending Diane Goullard’s services on any occasion where simultaneous or consecutive interpretation is required.

Two referrals led me to you, you were patient, courteous. I trusted your style, your work, you followed my instructions. I enjoyed the ”experience of working with you. I also liked your efficiency. I would use your services again if I needed to and would refer you too.

[…] For three days, practically non-stop, Diane Goullard performed her task with ease, professionalism, a sense of humor when needed and a willingness to provide the very best of services. After the second day of interviews, one of the French officers took me aside and commented how impressed he was with the work provided by Mrs. Goullard. After the third day, the interviews were ended and Mrs. Goullard’s services were no longer needed. Judge Z. congratulated Mrs. Goullard on her excellent work and expressed his gratitude for her having facilitated an already difficult task of melding two very different judicial procedures, i.e., French and American. I believe Mrs. Goullard made an outstanding contribution to this difficult investigation and it is my recommendation that she be considered on future occasions when translation or simultaneous translations are needed.

Satisfactory rating by native speaker of the target language. It was for Micki’s work assignment in school. The teacher loved it. I told her I went to you for Micki when tutorial services at the school flared out. Satisfactory responsiveness to client. Satisfactory knowledge and excellent courtesy. This was a strange assignment for you, I know, but you did well with it, and we both learned something about cultural concepts – knights on horses.

I enjoyed the experience of working with you, I trust your style, you follow my instructions, you demonstrate patience, courtesy and promptness. I and others were satisfied by your service. I would use your services again and will refer you if the occasion arises.

Thank you so much for being kind and understanding. Your presence certainly helped Charles cope with a terrible situation. He is now back in his family, trying to forget a painful episode.

Outstanding interpreter providing over-the-phone English-based interpretation for a variety of clients in the fields of banking, business, computer, finance, health, insurance, law, literature, telecommunications, etc. Diane Goullard Parlante frequently receives special recognition from clients.

Dear Mr. To [Diane’s Manager], Thank you for allowing me to send this gift for Diane Goullard Parlante…One of our priests passed away and his family lives in…France. None of them speak English therefore, I was in need of a translator. I feel extremely blessed to have gotten Diane. Diane saw me through this trying time (many, many calls) and it is not over yet. She is fantastic and I can’t say enough good things about her nor can this small gift repay her for all she has done. It is very comforting to know that your company has people like Diane to help those of us who are in need of “Diane’s”. Again, thank you very much, and may God bless you.

We had the opportunity to work with Diane Goullard Parlante, an experienced French translator, in Scottsdale Arizona this year. Diane worked directly with us on the worldwide launch of the Lamborghini Superleggera for 100 media and 200 dealer personnel. Diane’s task was simultaneous translation for the French audience group over a period of 5 days. Lamborghini found Diane to be highly professional, accurate and able to work at speed. We would have no hesitation in recommending her for French translation services.
