Legal Transcription Services Offers Efficiency with Human Touch
If you’re a lawyer on a case, you and your support team have a lot to manage when it comes to a trial. Not only are you trying to serve your clients, but you’re also developing and gathering collateral materials to win the case.
But those documents such as depositions, testimonies, official court hearings, interrogations, client letters, legal briefs, and general correspondence are time-consuming to gather.
That’s where we come in. By seeking the service of legal transcription, your documents will be ready for your case in no time.
What’s the difference between a court reporter and a legal transcription service?
Your firm may be wondering why you need a legal transcription service when you can use the transcript of the court reporter. However, that won’t be useful in all cases.
Court reporters, or shorthand reporters, are present in the courtroom and provide verbatim documentation of what is said. For a long time, lawyers thought this was the only option available to them.
But now with legal transcription, your official court hearings can be transcribed from audio to text at a much more affordable and timely rate.
Human interaction in a digital era.
Technology is still not at the level of accountability it needs to be when it comes to voice to text services like Siri and Alexa, as we’ve all experienced the unfortunate voice to text errors that leave us typing explanation texts back.
But sometimes relying solely on one person can be disastrous. In an article by The Marshall Project, the use of court reporters proved problematic when reporters could not clearly transcribe what was being said by individuals who spoke in cultural or regional dialects. In such cases, the misheard speech could actually have negative impacts on the trial.
While the stance still remains that the end goal is the fairest trial for defendants, it begs the question: how do we ensure the best result?
