Transcript Proofreading: Theory & Practice™​

I honed my skills in the Proofread Anywhere Transcript Proofreading: Theory and Practice™ course, based on Morson’s English Guide for Court Reporters and the NCRA guidelines.

I have proofread depositions, hearings, EUOs, and others. Subject matters have ranged from workers’ compensation to medical malpractice to construction and insurance.

Proof while you sleep

I currently live in Australia so I can work on those urgent jobs while you sleep! If you’re in need of a quick turnaround, I can have your transcript ready for when you wake up.

Hi! I’m Silas, a professional proofreader for court reporters. I help craft exceptional verbatim transcriptsWhen I’m not reading for work or pleasure, you’ll find me doing some form of sport, traveling somewhere new, or playing with the nearest dog. 

Throughout various jobs and my psychology degree , I’ve been the go-to proofreader for other people’s work, as it has always felt natural and intuitive. Errors seem to pop out at me, whether in legal documents or on chocolate wrappers.

My keen eye for grammar and punctuation, combined with my specialized training, has equipped me with the skills to aid you in producing a polished transcript. Contact me to get started!
