Who are you?

We’re looking for experienced videographers in the court reporting industry who own and can operate the latest and greatest video and audio technology, who have a proven track record of handling “hybrid” video jobs (in-person and remote participants), and who will handle themselves with professionalism and warmth toward the entire legal community.

• You have impeccable attention to detail and a client-service mindset

• You have strong communication skills, and you know how to adjust your approach based on the audience
