Court Reporting Agencies
Court reporting agencies have evolved over the years to provide a variety of different services. Court reporting agencies 20 years ago did not have the technologies available today so the court reporting agencies of the past did not provide video depositions, video synchronization, scanned exhibits, and many other services tied into the new computer technologies. Court reporting agencies can also provide tape transcription services for law firms and the courts. Many courts over the past 10 years have installed recording devices. However, the courts in many areas do not employ staff to transcribe these tapes. In most cases, the tapes are not transcribed until somebody needs it and it is the attorney’s responsibility to order the transcription of the tapes. Sometimes even court reporters will transcribe tapes. Tape transcription can be done at home. Court reporting agencies can also arrange for interpreters or can direct an attorney to an interpreting service. Many court reporting agencies will serve subpoenas. Other court reporting agencies will recommend a company to serve subpoena. Court reporting agencies have a large number of services they can provide which go far beyond just court reporting.
