When less than 1% of civil cases go to trial, your depositions are the trial. Stop relying on the "two-week transcript gap" and unreliable memory. Because the human brain interprets data rather than recording it exactly, costly ambiguities easily slip through. Real-time transcript access lets you catch evasive answers and lock in ironclad admissions instantly. Control the record: https://hubs.ly/Q04tRCsp0

Relying on memory during depositions introduces litigation risks. Learn how real-time transcript access allows attorneys to verify text immediately.

“Every deposition is an opportunity to learn.”
But only if you actually capture it.

Real-time transcripts mean better preparation, better strategy, and better outcomes.

Our CLO, Dean Whalen, and John Skelton of Seyfarth Shaw LLP discussed this with Jared Correia on Legal Late Night: https://hubs.ly/Q04f_L5C0

Not every lawyer wants real-time transcription in front of them, and that’s fair.

Depositions are human. Eye contact matters. Presence matters.

But there’s a middle ground: Use it as a safety net. Don’t watch every word live, but use breaks to confirm you actually nailed the testimony.

The question isn’t whether tech replaces skill.

It’s whether it reduces avoidable mistakes.

There’s a strange moment after a deposition.

You walk out and someone says, “I think we got what we needed.”

“Think” is doing a lot of work there.

For years, that uncertainty was unavoidable. Now it’s not.

Real-time visibility into testimony is changing how attorneys prepare, question, and adjust before the record is locked.

Readback CLO, Dean Whalen, breaks it down in this clip.

Before you onboard that new deposition tech, check these 3 boxes.

You can't just trust any deposition reporting vendor with your firm's data or your clients' cases. Readback CLO, Dean Whalen, breaks down what to look out for:

1. SOC 2 Certification: If they aren't certified, your data isn't secure. Period.
2. AI + Human Oversight: Pure AI isn't enough. The best services combine speech-to-text AI with real-time human editors for accuracy.
3. Admissibility: To use it in court, you need a real person to certify the transcript at the end.

Don't sacrifice data protection and admissibility just to save a buck on efficiency. Choose your vendors wisely!
