Testimonials
Satisfied Customers & Interpreters
“In the day to day workings of our lives, we sometimes take for granted the gifts that we have. Eaton Interpreting is a gift to me and our community both professionally and personally!
I could not do my job without your amazing interpreters and behind the scenes team in the office …. My “voice” and my teaching would be mute without the seamless and highly talented skills of your interpreters! Without the support of the staff in the office, my day would be for not. Without the gift of Kim and her company, our students would not be served. Kim’s personal attention is unmatched!
Recently a student emailed and made the following comment, “The normalcy and ease of communication were an example of the equality of Deaf and hearing people as well as the strength of ASL as a language. The communication in class was so smooth that I almost always forgot the interpreters were there.”
The Eaton Team has also advocated and provided my family and I qualified and caring interpreters during special and sensitive events in our personal lives. Inviting an Eaton interpreter into our private family events has proven time and time again to be a gift!
Thank you for all that you do for me and my family, students, and mostly for our Deaf Community! Hands Waving to all of you!”

“I had the distinct pleasure of working as a freelance interpreter with Eaton Interpreting Services, Inc early on in the inception of the agency. I have had the good fortune of observing the dynamic growth of this very reputable agency due to the inherent ethical business practices in which Kim Eaton conducts all aspects of the business. I went on to establish my own agency and attribute much of its success to the excellent role modeling and support of Kim and Eaton Interpreting Services, Inc. It is a model agency whereby the clients are insured of excellent interpreters, the interpreters can always count on a solid team to work with and support from the agency, and the consumers will always be assured of efficient, accurate and professional interpreting services.”

“We have used Eaton Interpreting Services at our Toast Master meetings at the State Department of Housing and Community Services in Sacramento. The sign language interpreters add so much to our meetings. Even though they are not often given advance notice of what speeches they will be interpreting, they are always dependable to come early before the meetings begin. They interpret with such good voice variety and enthusiasm and bring so much life to the meetings. I also compliment Eaton Interpreting on their efficient scheduling of interpreters. It has been a pleasure to work with your company.”

“Eaton Interpreting Services does an excellent job filling the many interpreting requests for the staff and students at San Joaquin Delta College.

“To any interpreter coming to Sacramento, I’d strongly urge you to contact Eaton Interpreting first. You’ll find the people (from the boss lady, the dispatchers, and even billing) to be professional human beings who truly put your needs above all other concerns.
I’ve worked in this business over 30 years and have never found a more supportive, compassionate, and professional team in place. When they sent me on a job I was fully equipped with all the proper information including who my teammate would be, as well as the background on the client’s wants and needs.
Their billing system is state of the art. I never encountered any conflicts between what was expected and what was paid. All I had to do was spend a minute or two in their system to submit an invoice that was already prepared for me (and always accurate) and knew that my bank account would be fattened on the promised day.
EIS could stop providing interpreting services and make a fortune teaching the other guys how to do it right. You won’t regret it. Call them first.“
