4,500 hours of legal audio, 9 languages, zero evidentiary challenges

All certified translations accepted for evidentiary submission without challenge across 6 jurisdictions.

Client Context & Operational Challenge

A multinational law firm managing cross-border litigation needed verbatim transcription and certified translation of legal proceedings — depositions, hearings, and arbitration sessions — across 6 jurisdictions and 9 languages. Existing court reporting services could not handle the multilingual volume or deliver translations meeting evidentiary admissibility standards.

Execution & Governance Model

Deployed jurisdiction-trained transcriptionists for each proceeding type and language. Legal translators with sworn or certified status in each jurisdiction performed translations with mandated terminology consistency across related case documents. Centralized terminology management ensured consistent treatment of case-specific terms, party names, and legal concepts across all languages and proceedings.

Scale & Velocity Constraints

  • 9 languages across 6 legal jurisdictions with distinct admissibility requirements
  • Verbatim transcription standards with speaker identification and timestamp precision
  • Legal terminology consistency across related proceedings in different languages
  • Certified translation requirements for cross-border evidence submission
  • Confidentiality protocols exceeding standard commercial NDA requirements
