Working up large-scale transactions and litigation requires considerable time-consuming meetings. Utilizing an associate to take handwritten notes or minutes of these meetings can be unreliable and not cost effective.

A realtime court reporter can attend these meetings in lieu of an associate.  Using a stenotype machine, laptop and state-of-the-art technology, we transcribe spoken words simultaneously -- or in "real time" -- and at the same speed that the words are being spoken.  A transcript is provided immediately at the conclusion of the meeting.

THE BENEFITS

1: Puts associate time and skills to better use: This service allows attorneys to focus completely on the substance of such meetings and avoid the diversion of note taking.

2:  Saves clients money: A realtime reporter costs less per hour than an associate.

3:  Provides you with instant transcripts on-site at the close of each meeting in a rough draft  format. This same-day availability of the transcript can be particularly useful in preparing each evening for meetings continuing over several days.  A proofread transcript can be delivered within 24 - 48 hours.  

4:  Enables easy conferring with colleagues or experts who cannot attend: The transcript can be e-mailed in a fully searchable electronic format.

5:  Increases efficiency: The supervising partner can keep track of development of the case without delay.  New attorneys coming in can simply read the transcript, obviating the need for someone to take time bringing them up-to-speed.

6: Enhances document organization:  Documents identified during meetings can be indexed in our transcripts.  This is an excellent resource when preparing for document-heavy litigation and transactions.
