The Wording of a Deposition Notice
Can the Notice of Deposition allow a non-licensed person to record your proceeding?
Are you being charged for non-testimony pages?
Upon review of random invoices, some court reporting firms charged full transcript page rates for non-testimony pages. The increase in costs to counsel ranged from 13.7% – 37.27%.
What is a digital reporter?
A digital reporter is a person with a tape recorder, not a certified court reporter. They sit with a digital tape recorder and make notes for a transcriber.
Reasons to Use Video Recording
Unavailability at the time of trial is perhaps the most commonly given reason for video recording a deposition, but there are other reasons as well.
Advance notice is more important than ever
There is no such thing as too much advance notice when it comes to booking a court reporter. Since deposition court reporters are independent contractors working for multiple firms, it is important that proceedings be scheduled as soon as a deposition/trial date is set.
Booking Out of the Area?
Rates may vary depending on the location and type of proceeding, and there are many factors that can affect your final invoice amount.
