Policies

  • Please contact me with the number of pages and due date prior to submitting a transcript so that I can ensure my availability. *If the job is a rush or daily, please include the job in the initial email so that I can begin working on it immediately if I am available. 
  • Please send a sample of a final transcript. Also send parenthetical preferences for read back, off the record, etc.
  • If you have ANY preferences regarding punctuation or capitalization, send those in the initial email. I have Morson’s, Bad Grammar/Good Punctuation, and The Gregg Reference Manual. I can work with any or none of those, depending on what you want.
  • If the transcript is a large job (over 100 pages), please send in 50-page sections. *Please do not wait until the job is completed to contact me. This will ensure my best work and a quicker turnaround time as it will allow for us both to be working on the job at the same time.
  • Please make sure your transcript is as close to turn-in ready as possible (properly scoped). As stated above, “messy” transcripts will incur higher rates. Remember I am the final set of eyes.
  • I annotate PDF only. I do not edit in any software at this time.
  •  Please submit your finished (not rough) work in PDF format. Do not send ASCII or .txt files. If you don’t have a PDF printer, there is a free one at www.CutePDF.com.
  • I return annotated pages only via email.

Billing

Invoices are sent out on the 1st and 15th of every month and are due upon receipt. Any invoice not paid within 15 days will be subject to a 10% late fee.

*For new clients: The first job must be paid for immediately after receipt. After that, you will be billed on a biweekly basis.  

I accept Zelle (preferred), Venmo, and all major credit/debit cards.
