General Rates for Services

There are exceptions depending on your specific requirements.

If you are contemplating sending out for bid an assignment that would involve a number of depositions, typically ten or more, please call so I can learn as much as I can about the services you may need for what is expected to be a protracted assignment and I may or may not adjust my rates for what would be a "bulk order for services."

Otherwise, for one-time assignments the following rates apply.


Jury, Non-Jury Circuit Court
The Circuit Court of the State of Virginia and in some of the Circuit Courts of the State of Maryland allows counsel to retain their court reporter of choice.  If you care to retain Mr. Hubbard to report a trial, please also note that your client must order the transcript during the trial which may include realtime reporting where the client and more than one party, if you wish, is sitting at counsel's table receiving a live feed of the transcript in rough draft form, either in LiveNote format or other realtime output, and ultimately the final certified version on an expedited basis or overnight delivery.

Mr. Hubbard's appearance fee for courts and arbitrations per AM and PM Session, is $200 or $400 per day and and after 5:00 p.m. at $75 per hour.  Of course, if the client is ordering daily or expedited transcript, these rates may be adjusted.


Arbitrations
It is understood that you are hiring Mr. Hubbard to transcribe the proceedings, be it on an overnight, expedited or regular delivery timetable.  The appearance fee is per AM and PM Session is $200.00.  This rate may be adjusted if the client orders daily or expedited transcript of the complete proceedings with or without the added service of LiveNote.

Conferences
Appearance fee is based on the difficulty of the subject matter to be reported the venue or where the conference is located, so please call for details.  This is an automatic transcript order and because typically just the original is sold, the cost per page is higher, typically starting at $7.50 per page for 10 business day turnaround. 


Transcript Rates

Please call Mr. Hubbard to work out the rates for transcript as there are many factors that go into what will be the final price depending on all the services the client requires and how many potential copies could be involved.





Realtime Reporting

The lawyer should have LiveNote already installed on his or her computer and this software must be current on fees paid for tokens.  Mr. Hubbard is not responsible for paying your tokens.  Please consult your firm's IT personnel for current updates.  Price of rough draft is included.  It is assumed that the end-user is completely familiar with LiveNotes.

In the altnernative, if you are not familiar with LiveNotes, try Bridge, a freeware software program delivered with Total Eclipse, the software program that Mr. Hubbard uses to report for realtime.  Bridge can be installed in one minute, yet it does everything expected of LiveNote, but with no hidden or surprise fees for forgotten tokens or your worrying about your current licensing agreement with another software vendor's software agreement  Walk away with your rough draft.  Price of rough draft is included.

IMPORTANT:  It is understood that you must also order the FINAL CERTIFIED VERSION at the rates herein posted in addition to paying for the realtime service.

1st Hookup, $1.50 per page
any other party, $1.50 per page per hookup


Video Services

When booking your deposition with Video, kindly indicate if you require DVD or VHS quality.  You are really much better off with DVD as this technology allows you to share in-house and with your clients the video, and at a later point when you are in trial simply point and click for instant playback of a specific passage in the video with the transcript or just play the complete video uninterrupted.

Recording Charges
Setup Charges, minimum 2 hours, $250.00
Recording time, after two hours, $125 per hour
Cost of the original borne by the party ordering the video, that charge is $150 for AM and $150 for PM regardless how many tapes or DVDs or CDs are used.
Any other party, $150 per AM and $150 per PM sesison.

Presentation Formats
You can order just a simple DVD of the deposition, but if you require the video to be linked to presentation programs such as Sanction or Trial Director, please call for a quote.  This is not a service that we provide in-house, but would refer that work to somebody else.  You can go to them directly or ask us to bundle everything for you for one set price and get delivered your transcripts and video at the same time.  Price may vary depending on the circumstances at the time, such as, placing an expedited order.

Editing Charges
If you owuld like to have us add titles and/or fixied or scrolling text comments in the video, just on your copy, we can do that.  This sometimes help the lawyer or paralegal know where exacly to point and click on the original DVD that you are presenting to the Court and jury.  Please ask for pricing.


Shipping Charges
Original cost of shipping orginal exhibts back to counsel will be added to our invoice.  There will be no "handling charges" just the actual cost of the shipment itself.
