USCIS does not require a specific translation company. For foreign-language supporting documents, USCIS requires a full English translation and a translator certification that the translation is complete and accurate and that the translator is competent to translate.
What Corpus provides: certified translations for USCIS purposes at $19.99/page, with a signed Certificate of Accuracy. Optional notarization is $25 and is separate from the USCIS translation certification requirement.

If you’re applying for a green card, citizenship, work permit, or visa — and any of your supporting documents are in a language other than English — USCIS requires certified English translations before they’ll process your case.
Missing or rejected translations trigger Requests for Evidence (RFEs) that can push your case back 30 to 90 days. Getting the translation step right the first time keeps your application moving.
