Are your legal transcripts certified?
No. We provide working transcripts. Only a court certifies its own proceedings, and we never describe our work as certified.

Working transcripts you can rely on
We produce working transcripts for preparation, review and filing support. We are not a certified court-reporting service, and only a court certifies its own record, so we never describe our work as certified.
Every transcript is edited by a professional who listens to the recording and checked by a second person. Unclear words are marked [inaudible] with a timestamp, never guessed.
Confidential by default
Files go to private, encrypted storage, reviewers only see the orders assigned to them, and media is deleted after the retention period or sooner on request. Tick NDA when you upload and our confidentiality agreement arrives for you to accept.
How your price is set
You pay for the work your recording actually needs, and you see why before you pay.
Measured
Each recording is measured to the second. You pay per audio minute, rounded up once per order, never per file.
Graded A to D
Every recording is graded on how hard it is to transcribe: how clearly the words come through, background noise, recording level, distortion and overlapping speakers.
Shown before you pay
Your quote lists each recording's grade and the reason. Think a grade is wrong? Email us before paying and a person checks it.
Accurate to the audio
What's written is what was said. If a transcript falls short, we re-edit it free, and every grade gets free corrections for 14 days. How the guarantee works

- Grade B · FairSome noise or distance, still easy to follow.Standard rate
- Grade C · DifficultNoisy room, distant speakers or frequent crosstalk.+30%
- Grade D · Very difficultHeavy noise, distortion or long unclear stretches.+70%
Legal transcription — questions
Do you keep every word for legal work?
Our house style keeps every word as spoken, including repetitions and false starts, and leaves out hesitation sounds such as um and uh. If your matter needs those too, say so in the notes and we'll quote it.
Can you match our firm's format?
Upload a sample or your style notes with the files. Supporting documents are never billed.
How fast can I get a deposition back?
Standard delivery is 2–3 business days; rush delivery within 24 hours adds 50%. Rush orders over 60 minutes are confirmed by our team first.
