I am a linguist and educator with a Doctoral degree in Italian. My business, Ephesus Translation Services, is located in Newton, Massachusetts and since 2015 I have been recommended and approved as a translator by the Consulate General of Italy in Boston.
I have maintained by status as a certified translator by the American Translators Association. Because of this status, legal documents that may require a certified translation will have my ATA official seal affixed to them. All translations are promptly completed and accurate, reflecting the formatting of the original. The translations services that I provide are from English to Italian and/or Italian into English. Completed orders can be delivered electronically and sent by insured mail or UPS all over the United States.
Primary Services:
1. Legal Translations into Italian for Dual Citizenship (by descent or by marriage)
I specialize in the translation of documents needed for the application of Italian Citizenship:
• Certificates of birth, marriage and death
• Divorces and separation agreements
• Name change and affidavits
• NARA Letters and Naturalization Papers
• FBI and State Background Checks
2. Legal translations into English for the UCSIS and Green Card Applications
The UCSIS requires all translations to have a certificate of accuracy. Legal translators need to be very experienced when translating for UCSIS. The certification and the seal of the American Translators Association is affixed to each translation. The signature of the translator is witnessed by a notary public who also signs the certificate of accuracy.
I have worked for many Italian citizens who prepared their documentation for the Green Card or for work permits in the States. She can translate Bank Statements, Deeds, Certificates of Births and Marriages:
• Rental Contracts
• Bank Statements

• Italian Birth and Marriage Certificates
