Jie Ma is fantastically professional in delivering her high-quality cross-language services. As an arbitrator and lawyer with lots of experience in international cases, I know that your choice of interpreter and translator can make or break a case; this person becomes your client’s voice in those cases or your voice in business negotiations. Remarkably short shrift seems to be given to such an important decision about someone who will be a key team member. I have seen Jie operate in legal and business environments and she is a worthy choice of a team member to help you get your message across effectively and accurately. Her deep Chinese cultural knowledge and advice are a tremendous added value to ensure you are not inadvertently trampling on things you may not know or understand. You can’t go wrong in choosing Jie to assist.

Jie is simply amazing at what she does. We hired Jie as a Mandarin translator/interpreter for a series of depositions, and she was fantastic to work with. Jie brought a ton of energy and focus to the project, working closely with the litigation team to make sure she was aware of key issues that she needed to prepare for in advance.
In the depositions themselves, she exuded technical skill and confidence, consistently adding value. Jie was a well-liked presence among the litigation team and witnesses, and I would definitely work with her again.

Jie was a joy to work with through an entire lawsuit in which our firm represented a high-net-worth individual in a financial fraud matter. The depositions and testimonies at trial were intense and spanned multiple days. Jie and her team were extremely professional and accommodating throughout every step of the process. During the trial, we needed a rushed overnight translation of documents, and Jie did not hesitate to work late into the night to turn the translations around so they would be ready the next day.
Jie is very impressive, and it is obvious she is passionate about what she does. I look forward to working with her again in the future.

Jie is awesome. I hired her as a litigation consultant in a high-stakes, complicated matter spanning two continents. She is very intellectually and emotionally intelligent. My experience is that complicated translation and interpretation require both. Her knowledge of and ability to understand and relay deeply nuanced cultural significance in multiple languages is amazing. She is an invaluable addition to any litigation team that requires Mandarin translation and interpretation. Thank you Ma Jie!!

My firm used Jie’s translation services during a lawsuit that went to trial last year, to translate for a Mandarin-speaking party. Jie was very easy to work with and to get ahold of and remained flexible as we were not certain which days we would need her services initially. Jie was extremely professional and we were impressed by her skills both in deposition and at trial during live testimony. I would highly recommend Jie to an attorney or firm looking for an exceptional Mandarin translator.

My firm and I have used Jie Ma’s Chinese Language Services for many years, for immigration and labor law-related matters such as document translations, interviews, and court trials. Miss Ma’s professional demeanor, quality legal language skills, and deep understanding between the US and China gave our cases great support. I highly recommend her services!
