Advancing technology has changed the way attorneys practice law.  Litigators MUST take advantage of every opportunity to make themselves more effective, including the use of realtime court reporting. 

But there are no meaningful standards for the quality of realtime.  Entry-level only, even NCRA certification doesn't guarantee you'll get realtime your client can use ... what I call Real Realtime.  "Real," as in the real deal.  Realtime you can READ.  Delivering what's promised.  Making sure that your clients get what they pay for. 

The principles of Real Realtime are simple.  Not all realtime is created equal.  Realtime is a specialty.  A conflict-free 99% translation rate is the foundation for readable realtime.  And your clients should ALWAYS get what they pay for!  After the witness is sworn is no time to discover the court reporter can't deliver as promised.
