It goes without saying that an online search is the best way to find an experienced and capable English-Hindi translator. Try local search to find one near you.
Check for samples of work done by the English-Hindi translator, checking both the English passage and also the translated passage to know if it is done right.
Look for specialized service providers with expertise in translation. Educational qualifications may not be the best guide since someone proficient in English may not be that proficient in Hindi and vice versa.
You may find that online translators will do a good job in most cases. Most of these online translation tools are free but you will need to edit the translated document.

Some useful tips for English-Hindi translations

Do not proceed sentence by sentence. Read the entire paragraph. Understand what is meant to be conveyed to the reader and then proceed with translation of Hindi to English.
Literal translation must be avoided.
Look for idiomatic expressions and try to understand the meaning behind these and use appropriate equivalent English expressions.
Make sure you follow English grammar rules such as the sub-verb-object construction, which is different from that in Hindi.
If you cannot do it then engage a bilingual translator familiar with nuances of Hindi and English languages.
At a pinch you could use online translation tools but be informed that these may not translate the meaning of idioms and related usages but will give literal translations on which you will have to work to render the true meaning.
