Access Transcripts prepares certified transcripts of Pennsylvania court proceedings: state trial courts, the Eastern, Middle, Western Districts, bankruptcy hearings, and 341 meetings. We request the audio, you receive a certified searchable PDF on the turnaround you choose, same day to 30 days.
Every appeal, post-conviction petition, and contested motion in Pennsylvania eventually needs the same thing: a certified transcript of what was actually said. We produce those transcripts. Since 2013, Access Transcripts has prepared certified, verbatim records for courts around the country, and we serve Pennsylvania clients in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Harrisburg and across the state.
Pennsylvania's federal courts, organized as the Eastern, Middle, Western Districts of Pennsylvania, record their proceedings digitally, and the bankruptcy courts release audio to approved transcribers on request. We hold that approved status in more than 30 bankruptcy courts nationwide, so the federal ordering process is home ground for us.

| Level | Court |
|---|---|
| Trial courts | Courts of Common Pleas |
| Intermediate appellate | Superior Court and Commonwealth Court |
| Court of last resort | Supreme Court of Pennsylvania |
| Federal districts | Eastern, Middle, Western |
