Scopist & Proofreader`s Corner

Posted on 1/14/2008

Updated 1/16/08
I get lots of inquiries from scopists around the country about working with me and my court reporters.  It`s clear from my full email inbox, however,  that I`m not very efficient at responding to each and every one that I would like to.  It`s getting harder and harder to give everyone the time and attention they deserve.  So I`ve decided to add this page -- Scopists` Corner -- to the site in an effort to be able to post people`s information and share these scopists with the rest of steno-dom.

Obviously, I haven`t worked with them all so I`m not vouching here.  Just sharing...

I am a proofreader in the San Diego, California area. Although I am in San Diego and because of our wonderful technology that we have today, it allows me to work with any court reporter in any part of the country. Currently, I have court reporters that I proofread for in San Diego, Los Angeles, South Carolina, New York and Boston. I love proofreading.  I have been a proofreader for several years. I am also a legal assistant in a prestigious law firm in San Diego. Court reporters send me their depositions via e-mail, I proofread the depositions and then send the corrections back to the court reporter via an errata sheet.

My name is Heidi Dillon and I am seeking employment as a scopist and/or proofreader. Although I have been scoping and proofreading for the past three months, I have 19 years experience in the legal field. I was a paralegal for 19 years and enjoyed it. Recently, however, I completed the Phoenix Theory with the Assistance of a mentor and have discovered the joy of working from home for court reporters. I’m a fast learner, hard worker and have a great turn around time. I am attentive to detail and I listen to audio line by line. It’s important to me to produce a great product and have my work in on time. I use Case Catalyst along with Express Scribe. I also have high-speed Internet and can easily be reached by telephone for a rush job. If I sound like the kind of person you need, please do not hesitate to contact me. I look forward to hearing from you. Reply email: hhjdillon (at) yahoo (dot) com

I have been a scopist for 10 years, and would love to make your life easier as a reporter.  My software is Digital Cat, and I worked directly with the designer of the software as his scopist until he temporarily moved to Florida.  In his office, I also worked as his editing manager with gaining experience getting his depositions copy ready that was invaluable.  I`ve had two years in court reporting school, and love working from home.  I listen to all transcripts unless instructed not to, proof for accuracy, and I`m willing to do it your way. Expedites are not a problem! Contact me at rebaburgess (at) verizon (dot) net as I check my email several times daily.

I can’t tell you how thrilled I was to find your site. It’s amazing not just your business & excellent website but that you are right here in Folsom! I’m beside myself.

My question is how much are proofreaders charging these days? When I was in school I charged the CSRs something like 25 cents a page. When I was a scopist I think my friends paid me by the hour so I don’t have any idea what’s generally accepted these days so any info would be really useful.
