Our Team

The production team is a highly reliable and super motivated team. A diverse group working throughout the country, we’re responsible for all final production of deposition transcripts.

We are tech-savvy perfectionists and collaborative team players. Not only do we work under tight deadlines, but we are also constantly evaluating and reevaluating our own processes to make them more efficient than they were the day before!

If a fast paced environment that keeps you on your toes is not for you, then the production team is probably not the right fit. But if you don’t shy away from a little chaos and you are a natural troubleshooter, then you may just find the home you are looking for here.
