You can translate them yourself if you're competent in both languages, say Spanish and English? I translated my own birth certificate with no issues; I'm a linguist/philologist although you don't need any title, nor the translation needs to be notarized. Just attach a page to the translation certifying you're competent to translate such documents.

From the USCIS page:

Certification by Translator

I [typed name], certify that I am fluent (conversant) in the English and ________ languages, and that the above/attached document is an accurate translation of the document attached entitled ______________________________.

ok thanks my friend had told me that its better to pay someone to do the translation, but i speak and write english good. ive been in the usa for over 20 years. i just dont want to risk our adjustment being denied. due to the fact that i translated the documents.

Look for a notary office in your local area, some tax companies will do them (if they have bilingual workers) good luck!

I can't see why they would deny you for translating it yourself, IF you're fluent in both languages and make an appropriate professional-like translation (format, etc.) You'll find tones of cases of people who did it themselves and had no issues. And again, it's fine if you want to get it notarized, BUT it's not mandatory/necessary.
