How to Fix a Deposition Transcript That Wasn’t Certified

Mistakes happen. Maybe a deposition was recorded by a digital reporter or AI service. Maybe you only have an uncertified transcript. The good news: in Texas, there are ways to fix and certify a transcript—if you act quickly.

Risks of Leaving It Uncertified

  • Evidence excluded.
  • Motions delayed.
  • Potential malpractice claims if case compromised.

Steps to Fix It

  1. Identify the Source – Deposition audio, video, or rough draft.
  2. Hire a Licensed CSR – Only they can certify.
  3. CSR Verifies Record – Compare against official audio/video.
  4. Certification Page Issued – Transcript becomes admissible.

Pro Tip

Never wait until trial prep. Address certification issues immediately after deposition.

Conclusion

Don’t let uncertified transcripts derail your case. Partner with a certified provider like Shauna Beach to fix the problem quickly.
