What Attorneys Notice Most About a Good Digital Court Reporter 💻

Remaining calm under pressure is a sign of a strong court reporter.

Attorneys may not always say it out loud, but they quickly recognize when a proceeding is being handled professionally. Strong digital court reporting shows up in ways that are subtle but important.

It’s not about being loud or visible. It’s about being steady.

Attorneys tend to notice when a digital court reporter:

• starts the proceeding smoothly

• administers the oath clearly

• maintains a calm, neutral tone

• manages interruptions professionally

• keeps the record organized

• handles technical issues without panic

• communicates clearly when needed

Professional presence builds confidence in the room , even virtual rooms.

Digital court reporting isn’t measured only by the tools used. It’s measured by how responsibly the proceeding is handled from start to finish.

Consistency, neutrality, and preparedness matter more than style.

When the record feels under control, attorneys feel supported, and that’s the real mark of professional reporting.

Professionalism is always noticed.
