Atlanta-based Esquire Deposition Solutions launched a new service last month allowing its court reporters to remotely transcribe and process depositions. Certified stenographers who have been trained in remote court reporting by Esquire and work in one of the company’s 35 U.S. offices can now use cameras to remotely swear in witnesses, mark exhibits, perform read backs and create certified transcripts.

Esquire general counsel Avi Stadler said that the court reporters use Zoom Room and other video conference equipment when working remotely. He added that since some jurisdictions, such as Florida and Texas, prohibit remote court reporters, Esquire won’t offer its new service in those states.
