I specialize in proofreading legal transcripts, including depositions, hearings, trials, etc. Court reporters have a challenging task in transforming the spoken word into an accurate verbatim record. This is where I am able to help! As your second (or third!) set of eyes, I will be able to catch additional errors that will help you stand out as an excellent court reporter and save you time!

Resources I Utilize
I was taught based on Morson's English Guide for Court Reporters by Lillian I. Morson and based on Court Reporting: Bad Grammar/Good Punctuation by Margie Wakemen Wells. Additional references I utilize include The Gregg Reference Manual by William A. Sabin, Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary, and reporters' personal preferences.
