“Certification carries significance for several reasons. It proves competence by ensuring that a reporter, regardless of method, has demonstrated mastery of the skills required to produce an
accurate record.” ~ Andrea Wecker, CSR, RDR, CRR, CRC
Livingston, New Jersey – February 10th, 2026 – Veritext Legal Solutions, the leader in court reporting and litigation support solutions, today announces that Andrea Wecker, CSR, RDR, CRR, CRC, was recently published in NALA’s Q1 issue of Facts & Findings for her article “Why Certification Matters for Court Reporters to Safeguard Justice.”
In this article, Wecker outlines the vital importance of certified court reporters as a foundational part of the justice system, ensuring an accurate and impartial record and fostering trust and professionalism. Wecker explains that certified reporters, regardless of method, are fundamental for appeals and for fair outcomes, as well as for public trust in the legal system.
“The backbone of justice is the written record and the guarantee that every word spoken can be relied upon when the stakes are highest. Without it, there is no accountability, transparency, or guarantee of fairness,” says Wecker. “Certification is the safeguard that ensures the record is accurate, complete, and reliable, no matter the method used to capture it.”
