Job description

Salary: $50,000–$60,000 with benefits, starting point based on experience

Where: Fully remote

Type: Full-time, W2 employee (benefits will be discussed during the interview process)

MGM Reporting is the digital reporting division of MGM Trial Services, which has supported law firms across the Mid-Atlantic for over 20 years. We're looking for a scopist to edit deposition transcripts captured through automatic speech recognition.

You'll take a rough ASR draft, work through it against the audio, and produce a finished transcript. That means correcting what the software misheard, punctuating testimony so it reads the way it was spoken, verifying proper names and technical terms, and conforming the whole thing to our formatting standards. Most of our work is medical malpractice, so expect expert testimony thick with clinical terminology.

We'll teach you the software and our house style. What we can't teach is editorial judgment: hearing

where a sentence ended, catching a term the software can't have gotten right, noticing when an answer doesn't parse and going back to the audio.

The Setup

You work remotely, full-time, moving through a steady queue of transcripts against a turnaround of a few days per job. You'll need a quiet place to work, good headphones, and reliable internet.

You won't be guessing at house style. We keep a documented style authority: a reporter preference sheet, a style and text guide, and a formatting specification. Questions of punctuation, number style, and transcript geometry have written answers. Our reporters also capture the proceedings themselves, so when the audio is ambiguous you can ask the person who was in the room.

What We Need

  • Command of English grammar, punctuation, and mechanics you'd be comfortable defending
  • Judgment to resolve an ambiguity sensibly, and to know when to flag instead
  • Patience to work against audio carefully and go back a third time when something doesn't sit right
  • Research habits for names, places, and terminology you don't recognize
  • Reliability on deadlines and discretion with sensitive material
  • Comfort learning new software and workflows

Preferred, Not Required

  • background editing or proofreading to a professional standard, in any field—academic, scholarly, technical, or publishing work all transfer
  • Medical or legal terminology background
  • Experience scoping, proofreading, or editing legal transcripts
  • Familiarity with Eclipse or another CAT platform
  • AAERT CET certification, or NCRA/NVRA credentials

How We Hire

We pay for a short edit test. It tells us more than a résumé does. If you've never touched a legal transcript but you have the eye for this, the test is where you show us.

Company Description

MGM Trial Services has provided cutting-edge litigation support services to the premier law firms in the Mid-Atlantic for over 20 years. This position is an opportunity to participate in one of our fastest-growing divisions. We view this role as a mutual investment, in which you are given the resources to grow with us—to become an asset to our tight-knit team.

We want to cultivate the linguistic precision, editorial judgment, and attention to detail that you already possess. We can provide training on the equipment, software, and workflows. What we value most is your ability to listen attentively, to read fastidiously, and to support clients with confidence. In return, you’ll receive competitive pay and the opportunity to grow into a highly skilled Digital Court Reporter.
