Realtime Reporting and Your Case

The aspect that sets realtime reporting apart from other types of court reporting is what the name implies– the court reporter’s transcript is translated out of steno into “real English” right as the court reporter is recording the legal proceedings. It gives attorneys the opportunity to have instant access to the transcript the moment the meeting is adjourned, or the transcript can even be displayed on a screen while the reporter is recording it.

This gives attorneys and other legal professionals the ability to see what is being said in real time, which is a fantastic resources for building the best basis of questions to ask a witness. On top of that, it is an excellent resource for the deaf and hard-of-hearing, as it is often faster to read written words than sign language. 

Having this resource is especially helpful for the summarization and retrieval process. Judges and attorneys can easily search key words and phrases to find what they are looking for out what what was just said without pausing legal proceedings to ask for clarification, especially when the transcript is hooked up to a personal laptop. All that is needed for this to work is some software.
