“Premiere Verbatim Reporting (PVR) provided our team with real-time reporting
services for over 60 days of examinations for discovery for a period exceeding 21 months.
The end result was over 9800 pages of transcript, with approximately 730 requests and
over 500 exhibits. PVR also provided a hardcopy of the exhibits, which were tabbed
and organized in binders as well as a scanned copy of the exhibits which were provided
to us on CDs. PVR’s staff was very accommodating with last-minute and usually
time-sensitive requests for extra services or scheduling changes. They were organized,
timely and very personable and warm. The hospitality and professionalism of the staff
at PVR was exceptional and the delicious home-made treats and snacks available daily
to us were an added bonus. In short, our experience at PVR was a very positive experience.
A big thanks to the wonderful staff at PVR!”

“I have practised law in Victoria for almost 20 years and over that period
have conducted innumerable examinations for discovery and other proceedings at
PVR. I have also conducted litigation proceedings at a vast number of other
court reporting offices throughout the province.
“PVR provides a service and atmosphere that is unparalleled. Litigation is a
stressful and adversarial arena and PVR provides an environment that ensures
my clients feel comfortable and well supported. Jan, Harry and Malcolm, and
now Sherene, have also created a collegial office culture within which counsel
are able to meet and conduct business in a positive and productive manner.
All aspects of the services provided are attended to including scheduling,
provision of top flight reporters, refreshments, decor, ambiance, accurate
transcripts, and a respectful "can do" attitude. I find myself contacting
PVR for help with all facets of litigation support such as depositions, video
conferencing, trial transcripts, appeal transcripts, mediations and video
depositions.”

“I have had the opportunity to utilize the services of Premiere Verbatim Reporting on many occasions during my 39 years of practice in the city.
The services provided were primarily reporting services but on occasion comprised of the provision of facilities for mediation and arbitration sessions.
I can say that the services provided were courteous, efficient, timely and accurate. At all times the members, associates and employees of
the firm were prepared to accommodate to the extent of that extra step.”
