Court Reporting FAQ

Use the Schedule a Reporter form and provide the proceeding date, local start time, city or remote format, estimated duration and requested services. You do not need every detail before contacting us. Known information can be submitted first, with unresolved items identified as pending.

CourtReporting.com coordinates requests throughout all 50 states. Coverage is reviewed for the particular city, date, format, credentials and requested deliverables. A nationwide scheduling relationship does not mean that every service is automatically available for every date or jurisdiction.

Requests may involve depositions, examinations under oath, hearings, arbitrations, trials and other legal proceedings requiring an accurate record. The scheduling team reviews the proceeding type, applicable requirements and requested credentials before confirming the appropriate workflow.

Yes. Requests can identify an in-person venue, a fully remote deposition or a hybrid format with participants in different locations. For remote and hybrid work, include participant locations, time zones, platform preferences, exhibit plans and any test-session or technical requirements.

Useful remote-proceeding details

Include the preferred platform, participant time zones, exhibit method, interpreter needs and whether legal video or realtime is requested.

A request may include realtime reporting, legal videography, video depositions, rough drafts, expedited transcripts, interpreter coordination and transcript delivery. Submitting connected requirements together helps the team evaluate the proceeding as one coordinated assignment.

Submit as early as practical. Additional lead time is especially useful for multi-day trials, realtime, video, credential-specific reporters, interpreters, expedited delivery and proceedings outside major markets. Last-minute requests may still be submitted for assignment-specific review.

Yes, when available for the assignment. State the exact deadline, time zone, preferred format and recipients. A rough draft is an unedited working document and is not the final certified transcript. Expedited production should be requested as early as possible.

The request is stored in the private CourtReporting.com Admin platform and categorized for follow-up before an email notification is attempted. An authorized team member can then review the information, update the lead status and contact you about availability, missing details or the next step.

The website may suggest a relevant city or state page using browser permission or an approximate network location. You can ignore the suggestion and continue using the nationwide website. A location page helps prefill scheduling context; it does not guarantee availability.

Yes. Law firms and corporate legal teams can contact us about recurring calendars, multi-city matters and connected reporting services. A consistent scheduling relationship can reduce repeated handoffs while each assignment remains subject to its own review.

Use the Join Our Team page to submit professional information, primary state, reporter type and available credential details. The submission is stored in the Reporter Network area of Admin for review. Submission does not guarantee employment, onboarding or assignments.

Only provide information reasonably needed to review the request. Do not include privileged communications, Social Security numbers, financial information, medical records or other highly sensitive material unless the team has specifically requested it through an appropriate channel.
