“The quality of a person’s life is in direct proportion to their commitment to excellence, regardless of their chosen field of endeavor.”

Prior to starting her own court reporting agency in 1980, Suzanne Hand learned the inner operations of law firms by working as a legal secretary for several years. Suzanne then went on to become a Grand Jury Reporter and an Official Court Reporter prior to opening her court reporting agency. The experience served her well because she truly understood the importance of accurate transcripts when going to trial. In launching her business, she developed standards of performance for the court reporters and administrative staff she now employs to ensure that accuracy and timely delivery would be a number one priority.

Suzanne Hand & Associates now serves the most successful litigators in New York State and provides state-of-the-art technology to support their needs. The agency specializes in complex legal matters with expert and technical witnesses and also serves municipalities and school districts.
