"Having been a civil litigator for over 25 years, I have participated in more depositions than I care to remember. I have used many court reporting agencies over the years, and have found most to be adequate. However, in recent years, I have found Hutchings Court Reporters to strive for and deliver a level of service unavailable elsewhere. Whether it is rough transcripts in 24 hours, finished accurate transcripts with mini-transcripts and DVD within days, or the providing of E-Transcripts, free of charge with my transcript order, providing me the ability to do a full -text search of any transcript resulting in invaluable time savings when preparing a discovery motion, MSJ, or, for trial. Where Hutchings truly shines, however, is in complex multi-party litigations, conducted at a Hutchings facility, where a single deposition could go on for days on end, and be attended by a room full of counsel. Whether it's their freeway convenient and comfortable facilities, convenient parking, real-time transcription, wireless internet access, onsite breakfast, lunch, and limitless refreshments, Hutchings is the gold standard."

"Hutchings Court Reporters is my favorite firm to utilize and I would use you exclusively if possible. Hutchings is flexible in scheduling and is able to cover emergencies and/or last minute depositions that seemed cannot be avoided in this profession. While no one likes an emergency or last minute appearance, we all realize they happen. I cannot recall a time when Hutchings advised they could not arrange a court reporter. Furthermore, your reporters are prompt and the transcripts are always timely and professional."

Everyone we dealt with was efficient, courteous, and available at any hour of the day, every day of the week. Hutchings provides simply sterling service."
