I'm a videographer. Wondering if anyone is posting video depos on this site?

I am in the process of looking at a new billing software system for reporter payroll as well as attorney billing, etc.  Any thoughts on ReporterBase v. Acculaw v. ????

Any thoughts/opinions/experience would be most helpful.  Thank you!

I'm in Riverside, and I'm trying to find out whether or not I can rely on the train to get to the OAH office in Los Angeles and possibly San Diego. To be more specific, I'm trying to confirm I can actually count on getting there reasonably close to the scheduled arrival time. I've heard some reporters do it regularly. 

I'm trying to find a way to be a team player and commute wherever I'm needed without running my car into the ground if possible.

Thanks for your time.

I wanted to get a consensus on what folks are using out there.

It seems there are some Anti-Virus software programs that disrupt or slow down my Eclipse.

What have you found to be effective without slowing down your other programs?

Thanks for your input!

Does anyone have a used RPR written exam study guide they are looking to sell? Thanks.

WARNING:  I RECENTLY WORKED FOR JANET EPSTEIN & ASSTS AND SHE HAS NOT PAID ME ANYTHING FOR THE 6 JOBS TAKEN STARTING IN NOV. OF LAST YEAR.  I HAVE BEEN PROMISED OVER AND OVER THAT I WOULD GET PAYMENT AND IT NEVER CAME.  I ALSO WAS TOLD THAT JANET WAS GETTING ALL OF MY MESSAGES AND SHE NEVER RETURNED A SINGLE ONE.

My husband and I will be traveling from South Florida to the Culver City/Los Angeles area on Sunday.  We're staying through Wednesday.  Anybody have a great restaurant they want to share?

In an effort to avoid violating the Sherman Act, I will speak in generalities.  A client asked me recently to justify the cost of an ASCii disk charged by another reporting firm.  I was shocked.  The cost was over 175% of what I and others I know charge.  I think a possibility is that the firm is not charging for an appearance fee which they would have to share with the reporter; on the other hand, if it is for a disk then the firm would not necessarily share…

I haven't done one of these in a while.  So let's talk about your first depo, what you should know and what you should ask and what you should do.

I'm going to assume you know the rate for the job you are about to take, payment terms, you have your equipment, and the job has been confirmed.

These are things that I like to ask the agency before the depo starts.  It will make you look more like a professional



Time estimate - I always ask for a time estimate.  …

I've passed two legs of the RPR and hope to pass my Q&A in May and take the CA CSR in July.  I'm looking for steno-related jobs to 1) pay the bills and 2) expand my dictionary and obtain all the steno experience I can.  Is there anybody out there that knows of LA/Orange County area agencies that hire non-CSRs to provide steno for business meetings or conventions -- any type of work that does not require a CSR license?  Thanks!

Looking for help on stacking issues with the Impression, just started writing on this a few weeks ago and want to fine-tune it.

Has anyone worked with a court reporter named Heidi Schlamowitz? I can't get in touch with her even though she gave me her number. She is in either Florida or New York, based on phone numbers.

Hi all!!!

I'm a fairly new reporter, almost a year, living in Southern California.  I have been contemplating buying cables for real time so that attorneys can hook up.  However, as I ask around, veteran reporters and agencies, I am noticing that real time is rarely requested in depos.  I can understand in court since you are connected with the judge.  So my question is, is it worth my investment to purchase the cables?

Has anyone had any experience with Suzanne Catalano from New York, who is not paying me.  Thank you.

What does everyone do when traveling to locations out of the judicial district/city/county you live in about city and county business licenses?  If you work out of your home and the business you do out of your home generates no traffic whatsoever, and you don't inventory salable products, since it is a professional service, and you have no place to publicly display (required) the license, why do we have to have it?    The state has taken over the issuing of city and county business licenses…
