​In short, yes. Court reporters are key to success.

There is no way an attorney can remember every fine detail of a case on their own. They can often remember the gist of what was said, but in the world of law “the gist” isn’t enough. To win a case, an attorney needs to know exactly what was said, how it was said, and who said it so they can have an impactful counter. Without that, they will not yield the results they want, letting down their clients.

Anderson Reporting’s court reporters are…

​At Anderson Reporting, our court reporters ensure that attorneys have every word from a deposition or trial in the palm of their hand. With a typing speed of over 200 words a minute, our Columbus court reporters can notate everything that transpires. They then format the transcript into one of their client’s choosing– be it paper or electronic– and send it off to their client within the requested time frame. An accuracy rate of 97.5% ensures that clients will receive a clean transcript as fast as possible.

Even recording devices cannot keep up with what our court reporters do. Distance from the machine and the speaker may result in audio that is difficult to understand. At times, the listener may be unable to discern between voices, or have a hard time understanding accents. Our court reporters make those uncertainties clear, allowing attorneys to proceed through case work with ease.
