with full audio for stenographers

Enjoy the peace of mind that your transcript will be scoped by a professional who cares as much about your transcript as you do.

Clean

Know that your transcripts will be comprehensively scoped and truly ready for proofreading.

Accurate

Know that any missing words will be added and spellings verified.

True to You

Know that your transcripts will be scoped the way you would scope them.

On Time

Know you won’t miss deadlines. Transcripts will be returned when (or before) due.

A Thorough, Well-Researched Edit

Know that your transcript will be thoroughly scoped, requiring only minor adjustments by you or your proofreader.

  • Verbatim Level
    All missing words will be added including, if desired, all filler words, false starts, stutters and word fragments.
  • Unclear Audio
    Unclear words and phrases will be carefully listened to at different playback speeds to discern what was said. Anything unconfirmed will be marked for your review.
  • Steno
    Untrans and mistrans will be intelligently defined, such as a selective job-specific global or a nonselective case-specific global, and then proofread before implementation.
  • Names and Terms
    Names and terms will be researched for spelling, capitalization and formatting. Anything unconfirmed will be marked for your review.
  • Exhibit References
    Exhibit references (such as a dollar amount or a quoted excerpt) will be carefully cross-checked with the exhibit (if available).
    Exhibit numbering, descriptions and index coding will be checked for accuracy.
  • Completeness
    Any missing bylines, parentheticals, examination headings and “witness sworn” sections will be added.
    Any additional pages, such as the cover and appearance pages, will be proofread.
  • Correctness
    Capitalization, spelling, punctuation and paragraphing will be edited according to grammar standards and your style preferences.
  • Consistency
    Punctuation style, numbers, spelling, paragraphing and formatting will be checked for consistency and edited accordingly.
