If it matters to you, it matters to us.
Cite was founded on one simple truth: Whether you're an attorney, paralegal, legal assistant or court reporter, you expect personal, reliable support from your Court Reporting Service — no matter how tough the challenge, or the deadline.
It’s our goal to offer busy litigators and support staffers unmatched professionalism in court reporting, videography, videoconferencing, interpretation and trial support services — anywhere in the world.
At the same time, we’re equally committed to maintaining a family-friendly work environment, where the best court reporting professionals have the technical and personal support they need to succeed. Because if there’s one thing we’ve learned from our decades of combined experience, it’s this: A court reporting service is only as good as its court reporters — and the best court reporters deserve nothing less than the best from us.
We live for the challenge this business brings us every day, we love making the impossible happen, and we’ve invested ourselves in creating a win-win organization — both for our clients and our employees. So how can we make your job easier, your time more productive, and your efforts more successful? We want to know. Because at Cite, if it matters to you, it matters to us.
