Logistics
Scheduling, Coverage & Timelines
The questions every paralegal asks before confirming the proceeding. Coverage areas, lead times, rush availability, and what happens when opposing counsel reschedules at 4:58 PM.
Standard assignments should be booked at least one full business day in advance. Requests submitted after 2:00 PM local time are considered next-day requests and may incur a late-scheduling fee. For same-day or rush assignments, call our scheduling line directly — we maintain a bench of available reporters for urgent coverage.
We maintain active reporter networks across all 50 states and Washington D.C. For multi-jurisdiction proceedings scheduled on consecutive days, we coordinate coverage across locations with a single point of contact on our end. International depositions via video conference are also available.
Standard delivery is 30 calendar days from the proceeding date. Expedited options include: 5-business-day delivery (+20%), 48-hour delivery (+40%), and same-day rush (up to +100% per page). Rush requests must be confirmed at time of scheduling — not retroactively.
Realtime is available for depositions, trials, and arbitrations where our CRR-certified reporters (Certified Realtime Reporter) are assigned. The realtime feed delivers an unedited draft transcript electronically as proceedings unfold. Additional cost is $1.80–$3.70 per page per feed connection. Note: as of 2023, only 2,141 reporters nationally hold CRR certification — request early.
Cancellations must be received by close of business the business day prior to the scheduled proceeding. Cancellations received after that deadline will incur a half-day appearance fee. Last-minute cancellations on the day of the proceeding are billed at the full appearance rate.

Credentials & Trust
Accuracy, Certifications & Confidentiality
The questions partners ask before signing off on the vendor. Certification levels, technical deposition handling, encryption protocols, and what 95% accuracy actually means in a courtroom.
All reporters in our network hold active NCRA or NVRA credentials. The core certifications are: RPR (Registered Professional Reporter — 225 WPM, 95% accuracy), CRR (Certified Realtime Reporter — 200 WPM realtime, 96% accuracy), and RMR (Registered Merit Reporter — 260 WPM, 95% accuracy). Reporter credentials are disclosed with every assignment confirmation.
Medical, scientific, financial, and engineering depositions are matched with reporters who have documented experience in that subject area. Specialized vocabulary increases per-page rates modestly. For complex technical proceedings, we recommend providing a glossary or exhibit list at least 24 hours before the proceeding — this measurably improves accuracy and reduces post-delivery corrections.
Our reporters are bound by NCRA's Code of Professional Ethics, which prohibits disclosure of any proceeding content. Transcripts are transmitted via AES-256 encrypted delivery, protected by strong passwords and multi-factor authentication on our delivery portal. We do not retain transcript content beyond 90 days unless instructed otherwise in writing.
RPR certification requires 95% accuracy at 225 WPM on the skills exam — this is the floor, not the ceiling. Our reporters complete NCRA-mandated continuing education annually. If you identify an error in a delivered transcript, our editorial team will review and correct within 24 business hours at no charge. Transcripts are official legal records; accuracy is non-negotiable.

Formats & Action
Rush Scheduling, Formats & Discounts
The questions that come up after you decide to hire us. Transcript formats, volume pricing, virtual appearances, and exactly how to get a reporter on two hours' notice.
Standard delivery includes a certified PDF. Our Litigation Package adds an ASCII/text version (for case management software import), condensed transcript (4-page-per-sheet), keyword index, and scanned exhibits. Video-to-text synchronization — linking each transcript line to the exact video timestamp — is available as an add-on for $150–$300 and dramatically improves cross-examination preparation.
Yes. Firms scheduling 10 or more proceedings per month qualify for volume pricing, which includes reduced per-page rates, waived late-scheduling fees, and a dedicated account coordinator. Insurance adjusters and large-firm litigation departments should contact us directly for a custom rate agreement. Download the rate sheet for published volume tiers.
Yes. Remote reporters are available for Zoom, Teams, Webex, and other platforms. Hybrid appearances — reporter remote, parties in person — reduce certified court reporter costs by 20–30% compared to traditional in-person stenography while maintaining the same certification standards and transcript quality. Specify your platform when scheduling.
Call our scheduling line directly — rush requests cannot be guaranteed via online form alone. Same-day assignments are subject to reporter availability in your jurisdiction. Rush transcript delivery (same-day or next-day) costs 50–100% more per page than standard five-day turnaround and must be confirmed at the time of scheduling. We maintain emergency coverage in major metro markets.
Provide: date, time, and location of the proceeding; estimated duration; proceeding type (deposition, trial, arbitration, EUO); whether realtime feed is needed; and whether video recording is required. More detail means faster assignment and more accurate pricing. The four-field form below covers exactly what our schedulers need.
