We are here to assist
25 years of depositions and hearings, and we’ve never let software guess at legalese. Real specialists recheck every file twice before it lands in your inbox.
Our specialists review each transcript – not software. What this translates to is context being pinged, errors spotted and if there is something that seems out of place case you know who to ring.

NYC Transcription for the Recordings Your Team Works With
A deposition, a research interview, and a production meeting require different kinds of written records. Legal teams may need every spoken word preserved, while an editor may want a readable transcript with timestamps for finding clips. We establish those details before transcription so the document serves its intended purpose.
Our New York City transcription services support individual projects and recurring work. Include speaker names, specialist vocabulary, and any existing template with your request. For a series of recordings, a shared glossary and consistent participant labels can make the completed transcripts easier to compare and organize.
Legal Transcription for New York City Firms
We convert recorded depositions, attorney interviews, witness statements, hearings, and legal dictation into written transcripts. Speaker attribution helps distinguish questions from answers, while agreed timestamps help your team find the corresponding passage in the recording. Names, case references, and unfamiliar terminology receive particular attention during review.
NYC legal work can involve commercial disputes, insurance matters, employment investigations, and other recordings with detailed professional vocabulary. Supply a case glossary or exhibit list when available. If the transcript is intended for filing, explain the required formatting and certification before ordering. Our service transcribes existing recordings; it does not supply live court reporters or stenographers.
Medical Transcription for Clinical Documentation
Our medical transcription service supports physician dictation, consultation reports, clinical notes, and other recorded healthcare documentation. Professionals familiar with medical terminology prepare the text and review it before delivery in the agreed document structure.
Healthcare practices can provide specialty terms, preferred abbreviations, and report templates to help maintain consistency across documents. Discuss patient information handling and any required agreements with our team before transferring sensitive recordings. If you need a particular EHR document format, share an example so compatibility and scope can be confirmed at the start.
Business and Financial Recording Transcription
Meetings often contain details that are difficult to capture in brief notes: a customer’s explanation, an executive’s qualification, or a decision discussed across several speakers. Business transcription gives your team a written record it can search and review alongside the original recording.
We transcribe business meetings, presentations, conferences, training sessions, and interviews. For financial or technical discussions, include the spelling of company names, product names, and acronyms. A glossary helps the reviewer distinguish similar-sounding terms. If your organization records a recurring meeting series, agree on the layout and speaker labels once and include those instructions with future requests.
Interview and Academic Research Transcription
Academic transcription helps researchers work with interviews, focus groups, lectures, seminars, and recorded discussions. A carefully structured transcript makes it easier to locate quotations, compare participant responses, and move between a written passage and its source audio.
Tell us whether your methodology requires fillers, repetitions, pauses, or other speech details to be retained. Provide participant codes if the project uses anonymized identifiers, along with the handling instructions required by your institution. Journalists and oral history researchers can also specify how names, interruptions, and unclear passages should appear in the final document.
Audio and Video Transcription for Media Teams
Podcasts, documentary interviews, webinars, and recorded panels can contain material for several publications. A transcript helps producers and editors find a quotation or segment without replaying the complete file. Time references can connect useful passages to the source recording during editing.
For media projects, include program titles, guest names, and any terminology that may be unfamiliar outside the production. Specify whether the transcript should preserve the original speech in detail or read more smoothly. If you also need timed captions or subtitles, identify that separately so the required service and deliverable can be confirmed.
Serving All Five New York City Boroughs
Our online workflow lets you request transcription throughout New York City without transporting recordings or visiting an office. The same submission process is available across all five boroughs.
| Borough | Examples of recordings you can submit |
|---|---|
| Manhattan | Legal interviews, presentations, business meetings, and media recordings |
| Brooklyn | Research interviews, podcasts, training sessions, and creative projects |
| Queens | Healthcare dictation, community interviews, and business discussions |
| The Bronx | Academic recordings, interviews, clinical dictation, and meetings |
| Staten Island | Professional dictation, recorded interviews, and organizational meetings |
These are examples, not restrictions by borough. Tell us about your recording wherever your team is based. For deadlines, use Eastern Time and provide the delivery date as well as the hour, especially when different offices are coordinating the project.
How Much Do Transcription Services Cost in NYC?
Our transcription pricing starts at USD $0.95 per audio minute. The charge is based on recorded duration, not the time a transcriptionist spends working. At the starting rate, a 30-minute recording would calculate to $28.50 before applicable project adjustments.
The final quote depends on audio quality, number of speakers, technical complexity, turnaround, and requested formatting. Per-page or per-line billing may be available for certain legal and medical projects. Send the file or a representative sample, and we will confirm the scope and price before you authorize the work.
Choose Your Transcript Style and Delivery Format
Full verbatim transcription retains spoken detail according to the agreed instructions, including repetitions and false starts where required. Clean verbatim transcription removes selected speech fillers for easier reading while preserving the meaning. The right choice depends on how the document will be used.
You can also request speaker labels, timestamps, and a specific document layout. Common source formats include MP3, WAV, M4A, MP4, and MOV. Completed transcripts can be supplied as Word, PDF, or plain text as agreed. Share an example if you need a particular template, and confirm any additional formatting charges in the quote.
Accuracy and Confidentiality for Professional Recordings
American Transcription Services combines human preparation with multiple quality checks and a 99%+ accuracy commitment. Clear recordings help the team verify what was said. Background noise, overlapping voices, and unclear speech can limit recoverable detail; unresolved passages should be marked rather than guessed.
Confidential material is handled through the agreed transfer and access process. Discuss NDA requirements, permitted access, retention, and deletion arrangements before submission. Our data security policy provides more information about how client information is managed. Share project-specific handling requirements when requesting your quote so the team can confirm the appropriate arrangements.
