Thank you for your assistance in recommending Diane Goullard Parlante, a French interpreter, for our Federal Bankruptcy Court trial. We were impressed with her professionalism, and she was an asset to both parties and the Court. She did an excellent job during the course of our two-day trial, and if the need arises, we will be sure to ask for her assistance again.

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.

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.

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.

While she attended St. Mary’s College to become a Paralegal, Diane lived with my wife and me in our home in Orinda, CA. It became readily apparent to us that Diane was bilingual in French and English. Her English grammar and pronunciation were excellent. I might add that Diane has an ideal personality to be an interpreter. She is naturally interested in people. She would be completely at home conversing in French or English in almost any field I can think of.

You interpreted [French and English] for individuals in a variety of circumstances, sharing their joys and sorrows, and participating in the common as well as extraordinary occurrences of other people’s lives. You provided courteous, professional service, often exceeding our clients’ expectations. I extend to you my heartfelt thanks and appreciation for your willingness to interpret for Language Line Services.

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.

[…] 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.

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!

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.
