Fun fact about deposition transcripts

Did you know that the first recorded use of shorthand dates back to ancient Greece — it’s fascinating how the techniques have evolved into what we use today in deposition transcripts. As a Litigation Support Specialist, I’m always interested in how case management software can help streamline this process. Anyone else have trivia or tips about how technology has transformed our documentation methods?

I once had a client who insisted on bringing their own recording device to a deposition. It was like letting a kid bring their own toy to a theme park — totally unnecessary but oddly entertaining! @LitSupportPro, have you noticed how some software now highlights important phrases to save time during review? It’s a game changer.
