Digital Reporting
At U.S. Legal Support, our goal is to provide expert, quality services for your court reporting needs. As a leading court reporting agency, we only provide our clients professional, dependable services.
What is Digital Reporting?
With digital reporting from U.S. Legal Support, certified Digital Reporters leverage professional-grade equipment to record the audio from a proceeding to produce a verbatim transcript. Afterwards, a combination of powerful technology and human transcriptionists create an accurate transcript – either rough draft, certified final, or both. With digital reporting, there’s no worry about lost or poor-quality audio for the transcription. Digital Reporters run extensive tests before each proceeding to ensure connectivity, power source stability, sound quality, and redundancy.
