Transcript Proofreading
Justice hinges on truth, and accurate records uphold it
As a court reporter, stenographer, or transcript creator, you’re not just capturing words – you’re making history. Let’s ensure it’s accurate, together.
Accuracy, or the lack thereof, affects reputation, finances, and life trajectories.
Together, we can play a part in preventing negative ripple effects in the lives of those involved in your transcripts.
Partnering with you enables clear, accurate transcripts, giving everyone involved the best chance at finding the truth and obtaining the protections due them by the law.

When do you need your transcript back?
How we work together
Here’s how it works
You capture the spoke word, your scopist fixes everything they can, and then you pass a PDF of the transcript to me.
At this time, I do not proofread to audio or use scoping software.
1. Send your Transcript
Provide your fully scoped transcript in PDF format. (If this is our first time working together, please let me know your preferred rules and dictionary.) Need a PDF converter? Try one of several free tools: FreePDFConvert, www.CutePDF.com, or Adobe’s PDF Converter
2. I review and Mark up your transcript
I use rules found in guides by Morson’s, Gregg, and Margie Wakeman Wells, along with your preferences. I’ll carefully review your work, marking suggestions directly on the PDF.
3. I deliver annotated pages back to you
This is done through the same email thread you used to send the transcript.
4. You review the work
Only incorporate the changes you choose. If you didn’t get a chance to send your preferences, you can let me know if there’s something you don’t want me worrying about next time. It can take 2-3 transcripts to get dialed in with each other.
Fatigued-induced errors are 100% preventable
