The challenges

Every legal transcription project brings its own set of challenges. The most critical among them are accuracy, certification, and time, each of which plays a decisive role in the success of a case.

Firstly, creating word-for-word transcripts of courtroom dialogue is one of the toughest tasks in the legal field. Overlapping speech, interruptions, and background noise make recordings hard to follow. Verbatim transcription prevents misinterpretation, with humans averaging only a 4% error rate compared to 12% for AI.

Secondly, another challenge was producing certified legal transcripts that meet strict evidentiary standards. Courts reject generic or loosely edited documents because even small errors can jeopardize a case. Each transcript required a Certificate of Transcription Accuracy and sealed copies, with 96% of legal professionals agreeing that accuracy is the top priority in court reporting. 

Lastly, delivering on tight deadlines without sacrificing accuracy. Legal teams often need transcripts fast for hearings, depositions, or appeals, and any delay can derail a case strategy. Tomedes balanced speed with precision to deliver timely, accurate transcripts, reflecting why 30% of legal professionals prefer digital court reporters for their reliable on-time delivery.
