THE HIGH COST OF LOW PRICE

The "one-stop shop" concept is great!
It cuts down on the time you have to spend scheduling, especially when your case takes you across the country. And reporting firms can easily coordinate reporter, videographer, teleconferencing, text synchronization, and so on. But depending on the skill of the reporter, realtime can be a delight ... or a disaster. Litigators who handle more sophisticated work know they can only get "the edge" by insisting on Real Realtime reporters, no matter where their work takes them.

I've always felt it's better to do one thing and do it well.
Sometimes, someone who dabbles a little in this and a little in that may not have true expertise in any particular area - kind of a jack-of-all-trades, master of none. It's my opinion that realtime is a specialty that's most effectively provided by highly skilled and talented REAL realtime reporters ... those who promise AND deliver. Many top-notch realtime writers travel nationwide and work with some of the best, most effective litigators in the country. Those freelance reporters are available to YOUR favorite reporting firm too! They're just a phone call away.

So what IS the most expensive court reporting firm you can use? It's one who can no longer satisfy your needs. Make sure when you need realtime reporting services that the reporting firm knows exactly what you need and the level of service you expect. Then, hold them to their promises.

You get what you pay for
Realtime court reporting is a professional service top litigators use to gain an edge over the competition. But no one HAS to have realtime.

When your case does merit realtime, I encourage you to choose wisely, and make your request crystal clear to the reporting firm . If your first consideration is price, however, you have a good chance of being stuck with realtime you just can't use. In the long run, this can cost you time, money, perhaps results.

Are you looking for rock-bottom rates?
Today, it seems court reporting firms are popping up all over. Many offer nationwide coverage, and more still are trying to jump on the realtime bandwagon. They may throw together a nice marketing presentation, promise the moon and the stars, and then put unskilled, inexperienced reporters in the realtime chair. That's a cheap solution for cheap prices. And cheap things often cost you more in the long run.

Your client didn't choose you and your law firm because of cheap prices, they chose you for your promised effectiveness! Choosing a reporting firm that can attract the caliber of reporter who can deliver what you need is always worth it! You'll get exactly what you want when you want it, and your client won't be billed for services you can't use.
