Court interpreting is a crucial aspect of the legal system as it is a guarantee for those who do not speak the language of the court to understand and effectively participate in the court proceedings. Court interpreters’ job is to facilitate the communication between people who speak different languages and are involved in the trail to ensure a fair and just legal process. They usually face some challenges through their interpretation journey in courts. Given the fact that UAE is a multilingual and multicultural country, it is assumed that court interpreting is an important area for study. Working in a major city’s courts as Abu Dhabi is considered a challenge for some, especially when it comes taking time to adapt to difficult situations and training. This research sheds light on the current position of court interpreting in Abu Dhabi by investigating the various types of challenges encountered by court interpreters in Abu Dhabi courts and suggesting some practical actions for improving the quality of this industry. To collect data for this study, structured questionnaire using Likert Scale and some open-ended questions are given to a random sample of court interpreters in Abu Dhabi. The findings show that court interpreters in Abu Dhabi lack of academic background and sufficient training. (EN)
