With a real-time feed during deposition, attorneys can attend remotely, either from their office or from the office of a co-counsel, dramatically reducing the need for travel and expense of remote deposition. Using a court reporting service allows attorneys to concentrate on the words being said, instead of splitting their attention between taking notes and actively listening.
Once the testimony is transcribed, attorneys or their support teams can easily scroll for pertinent responses, or mark or unmark certain lines of testimony for reference. Or, lines of testimony can be flagged with a number, which corresponds to case-specific issues to easily compile arguments from multiple sources of testimony. The transcriptions are also easily searchable, allowing attorneys to type in certain keywords or phrases to find topics quickly. This is much more efficient than searching through pages of handwritten or typed notes and can save time at trial. Plus, users can insert notes in the testimony for use at a later date. With real-time access to transcribed testimony, lawyers can immediately clarify, if they misheard, versus waiting for a transcription to come back from a traditional court reporter. Sometimes, the answer that you think you hard isn’t actually what was said. Having transcription in real-time can reduce these errors and misunderstandings.
