<p>There are reporting firms that charge a late cancel fee if the attorney's office doesn't call before 5:00 the day before the deposition. The videographers and the interpreters have been charging these fees (which are higher than ours) for years! Some videographers even charge a 24 or 48 hour cancellation fee. We really need to value our own time. I find it hard to believe an attorney wouldn't bill their client if they got to a depo that didn't go forward. </p>

<p>Yes, bill hourly for wait time. </p>

<p>That is so unacceptable. My motto is YOU PAY YOU GET as in you (the lawyer) pay for the privilege of a court reporter showing up (and giving up a day of earned income) for your deposition that you haven't bothered to confirm properly.</p>

<p>Thanks for the responses. I also feel as if the law firms haven't been as diligent as they used to years back in confirmation of depos. When asking if the depo is on, we hear the phrase "Well, we haven't heard otherwise" from the attys when confirming depos. </p>

<p>If I don't have to leave the house, I don't charge a fee. Example, I get a call the morning of the job before I leave the house. I don't charge for that. However, if I get the call on the freeway, I'm charging for it.</p>
<p>Scenario 1, I charge the regular cancellation fee (can't post rates here).</p>
<p>Scenario 2, depending how long I have to wait, I will charge an hourly fee along with a cancellation fee.</p>

<p>Nobody is able to pay health insurance premiums on these rates but it's certainly better than nothing. Been there done that with each of these scenarios. </p>
