Virtual Litigation Solutions

Home / Services / Virtual Litigation Solutions

The way in which litigation procedures and depositions are conducted has changed quite a bit in recent years. In part due to Covid19, more legal professionals than ever have begun embracing new technologies to conduct legal proceedings remotely. Social distancing requirements meant that new ways needed to be utilized to ensure legal proceedings were not put on hold, and could safely continue as needed.

Even though the pandemic restrictions have eased, these legal professionals have discovered the convenience of deposing an out-of-state witness, collaborating with other team members in different time zones, and participating in key litigation events in other areas of the county through the use of innovative virtual litigation solutions. This means that arbitrations, jury research sessions, depositions, meetings, witness communication training, and other legal proceedings can now be conducted in a convenient, virtual setting.

Hudson Court Reporting & Video provides “All-In-One” virtual litigation support services to clients in the legal industry across the US and other places around the globe.

What are Virtual Litigation Support Services?

Virtual litigation support services are virtual court reporting services that involve the creation and maintenance of precise and verbatim records of legal proceedings. Skilled professionals, known as court reporters or stenographers, use specialized tools like stenotype machines or voice writing systems to transcribe spoken words into written form. These written records can serve as evidence or transcripts for review in a court of law, administrative hearings, or other legal proceedings. Virtual court reporting services offer a range of features, such as real-time reporting, captions for the hearing-impaired, and video and audio recordings. The primary objective of these services is to ensure an unbiased and accurate account of legal proceedings, which can be consulted for future reference.

Virtual Litigation Solutions

With virtual litigation solutions from Hudson Court Reporting & Video, all you need is a mobile device or laptop to access and take part in legal proceedings anywhere in the world in real-time, including witness prep, trials, depositions, arbitrations, trials, and more.

With Hudson Court Reporting & Video’s easy to use video conferencing platform, you can take part in one-way or two-way conferences with the use of any standard web enabled camera. This gives you the capability of conducting face-to-face interviews, jury selection, collaborating with colleagues, or analyzing witnesses, undetected, from anywhere in the world.

Remotely live streaming litigation events saves countless hours of travel time that would have otherwise been spent traveling to and from legal proceedings, saving firms a significant amount of revenue in the process.

Real-time, interactive streaming allows everyone involved in the legal proceeding to follow the court reporter’s transcript as is written. A streaming text feature allows you to create non-discoverable and secure private text conversations throughout the video feed.

Those in attendance can search highlighted text and keywords, and make notes as needed. All of this can be exported into your choice of litigation software that can be reviewed or referenced at a later date.
