Legal Videography

Home / Services / Legal Videography

Legal videography services are an essential part of legal proceedings, providing an accurate and detailed representation of testimony. Video captured during depositions and other legal proceedings are admissible as evidence in court, and is an invaluable tool for presenting the testimony of a non-appearing witness or to discredit the credibility of an adverse witness.

Captured video depicts vital nonverbal components of the person testifying under oath, such as body language, facial expressions, pauses in testimony, and tone of voice. Hudson Court Reporting & Video provides a full suite of professional digital videography and legal videography services that enables attorneys to utilize the full impact of testimony.

Types of Legal Videography Services

Take advantage of Hudson Court Reporting & Video certified legal videographers, who are specialists in producing broadcast-quality video and innovative post production capabilities in the following areas:

  • Deposition Videography
  • Trial and Hearing Videography
  • Arbitration and Mediation Videography
    High quality video captured during any legal proceeding is a powerful tool for capturing what text cannot. Non-verbal information including pauses, facial expressions, and other body language are captured on video during a deposition, trial, hearing, arbitration, or mediation providing a more thorough record for judges, lawyers, and litigants.
  • Day-in-the-Life Videos
    If a picture is worth a thousand words, a day-in-the-life video is worth its weight in gold. A plaintiff who is permanently or severely injured needs their story to be told in a way that is convincing, effective, and impactful. The way their story is presented to the jury or mediator can deeply affect the way their injuries and damages are assessed, and how they will be rewarded. Simply using words to describe how a plaintiff has suffered can never truly convey the challenges they are facing in their day-to-day life in the way video can.
