Livingston, New Jersey – January 6th, 2026 – Veritext Legal Solutions, the leader in court reporting and litigation support solutions, today announces that Tony Donofrio, CTO, was recently featured alongside expert peers in the Law.com newsletter Legaltech News in the article, “Legal Tech’s Predictions for Emerging Technology in 2026”.

In this article, Donofrio joins a group of legal technology thought leaders as they outline their predictions for emerging technology in 2026, highlighting how new innovations will reshape legal practice. They explore a range of topics expected to define the year ahead, including the integration of advanced AI and autonomous systems, rising expectations for governance and regulations, and the growing challenges and opportunities that firms, in-house teams, and courts will face as advancing legal tech becomes more deeply woven into everyday work.

“As society and law practitioners have become accustomed and more comfortable with leveraging language models as a tool, we will begin to become more comfortable with letting an AI agent execute parts of our work for us autonomously,” says Donofrio. “The tools are maturing, and our understanding of how to safely apply them is advancing.”

Tips for Creating Positive Outcomes in Legal Proceedings: A Guide for Legal Videographers

By Carmine A. Giuliano – CLVS, CME, Director of Technical Services, Veritext



Tips for Creating Positive Outcomes in Legal Proceedings: A Guide for Legal Videographers

Legal videographers play a vital role in ensuring that every legal proceeding runs smoothly, accurately, and professionally. Every deposition brings together new personalities, new challenges, and new opportunities to demonstrate the unique skill set our industry is known for: neutrality, precision, emotional intelligence, and calm leadership.

Rather than seeing challenging moments as obstacles, we can view them as chances to elevate the process and showcase the high standard of professionalism that clients rely on.



I. Navigating Dynamic Environments with Confidence

Each proceeding introduces a fresh group of attorneys, witnesses, and clients. This variety keeps our work engaging and gives us opportunities to:
  • Adapt to different communication styles
  • Establish a balanced and neutral environment
  • Guide participants toward a smooth, orderly process
Legal videographers and reporters are often the quiet anchors in the room—maintaining clarity, structure, and consistency.


II. Building Strong Client Relationships Through Professionalism

Positive, consistent interactions help build long-term trust with the attorneys and firms we serve. Even small actions can strengthen those relationships:
  • Greeting clients warmly upon arrival
  • Clearly explaining processes and expectations
  • Responding with patience and professionalism
  • Demonstrating reliability in every step of the proceeding
When clients feel respected, supported, and confident in your abilities, they not only appreciate your work—they remember it. Strong relationships lead to smoother proceedings, repeat business, and a reputation for excellence.


III. Skills That Elevate the Experience

  • Professional Composure Sets the Tone
    Staying calm and steady helps everyone in the room feel more grounded:
    • A clear, steady speaking tone encourages respectful communication
    • Maintaining professionalism helps reduce tension before it grows
    • Participants often take their cues from us

Your presence can shift the energy of the entire proceeding.


  • Active Listening Builds Trust
    When participants feel understood, cooperation improves:
    • Allow individuals to fully express concerns
    • Paraphrase to show understanding
    • Use empathetic language like, “I hear you—let’s figure this out together.”

This approach helps everyone feel supported and promotes a more orderly, efficient proceeding.


  • Solution-Focused Thinking Leads to Better Outcomes
    Instead of dwelling on issues, redirect conversations toward what can be done moving forward. Even in a neutral role, you can help create a more positive experience by clarifying options that are appropriate for your position:

    • Ask what a successful outcome looks like for them
    • Acknowledge what is within your role to address (and what is not)
    • Offer realistic choices related to your responsibilities—for example, explaining technical options, confirming preferences, or outlining next steps you can take

By giving clients clear, manageable options within your role, you help them feel more at ease and more in control of their experience, which ultimately supports a smoother proceeding for everyone.


  • Thorough Documentation Strengthens the Record
    Clear communication ensures success:
    • Take notes when something needs follow-up
    • Share important details with your Veritext office
    • Reach out whenever guidance is needed
This level of care supports clients and protects the integrity of the proceeding.


IV. Every Deposition is a Chance to Demonstrate Success in Action

Legal videographers are essential partners in the legal process. We bring structure, professionalism, and calm to every room we enter. By leading with confidence, empathy, and solution-oriented thinking, and by building genuine relationships with our clients, we help create an environment where everyone can do their best work.


A Positive Perspective

Legal videographers are essential partners in the legal process. We bring structure, professionalism, and calm to every room we enter. By leading with confidence, empathy, and solution-oriented thinking—and by building genuine relationships with our clients—we help create an environment where everyone can do their best work.

To quote Henry Ford:
“Coming together is a beginning. Staying together is progress. Working together is success.”
