Clean Verbatim


If an attendee brings up Verbatim you can refer to the information below -


As part of our ongoing effort to deliver clear, professional, and accurate transcripts, we are implementing a clean verbatim style for all speakers except for the Witness. 


The Witness’s speech will continue to be captured using full verbatim, but all other roles—including attorneys, digital reporters, and investigators—should be transcribed using clean verbatim rules within Depositions, Examinations Under Oath, and Sworn Statements.


This shift helps streamline readability and clarity while preserving the legal integrity of the record.


What clean verbatim changes for non-witness attendees

  • Filler words (uhm, uh, like, etc.)
  • Non-Meaningful Repetitions (Words or phrases repeated out of habit or nervousness that don’t contribute to the content.)
  • Stutters (Partial words or repeated sounds that occur due to speech disfluency.)
  • Introductory Lead-Ins (well, so, like, okay, etc.)
