TISA Legal Media is revolutionizing litigation support. Our proprietary court reporting system combines the speed and flexibility of digital reporting with the precision and quality standards of traditional stenography — a solution trusted by both digital court reporters and veteran stenographers alike.
What that means for you: faster turnaround times, real-time transcript access, uncompromising accuracy, and a more efficient litigation workflow from start to finish.
Blending Tradition with Innovation to Redefine Court Reporting
At Tisa Legal Media, we believe the future of litigation support isn’t about choosing between traditional methods and emerging technology — it’s about learning from the best of the past to build something better.
Our proprietary court reporting system was developed with the insight and expertise of veteran stenographers, but our focus today is 100% digital. By combining the proven precision of traditional reporting principles with cutting-edge technology, we deliver faster turnaround, superior accuracy, and unmatched reliability — without the limitations of legacy systems.
The Foundation: Proven Precision
Stenography set the standard for accuracy and attention to detail — and we’ve built those principles directly into our system. While we no longer employ stenographers, the lessons learned from decades of traditional reporting are baked into every step of our process.
The Future: Digital Innovation & Modern Tools
Court reporting is evolving — and so are we. Our digital and electronic solutions leverage advanced audio and video capture, intelligent annotation, and speech recognition technologies to enhance the record and streamline production. This ensures comprehensive, verifiable transcripts while capturing the nuances of testimony more effectively than ever before.
The TLM Way : Specialization Meets Innovation
In the evolving landscape of court reporting, TLM stands apart by adopting a modern approach to this time-honored profession. Traditional and contemporary court reporting methods often depend heavily on the versatility of a single individual to manage various critical tasks. However, the complexity and importance of each task—from recording to transcription and quality assurance—demand specialized skills for optimal efficiency and accuracy.
While most agencies rely on a single reporter to manage every stage of the process, we take a different approach. Inspired by assembly-line efficiency, “The TLM Way” breaks the process into six specialized steps — each handled by an expert in their field:
- Seamless Scheduling – 24/7 booking online, by phone, or email.
- Expert Testimony Capture – Professionally trained TCTs ensure clarity and accuracy.
- Secure Central Storage – Encrypted preservation of testimony for future use.
- Specialized Transcription – Certified experts transform recordings into precise transcripts.
- Rigorous Quality Control – Every word is verified before delivery.
- Heroic Customer Service – Feedback-driven improvement ensures your satisfaction.
This specialized approach reduces errors, shortens turnaround times, and elevates transcript quality — while giving our clients a level of service and reliability that’s simply unmatched.

Justice For All
From Solo Entrepreneur to Court Reporting Disruptor
The Awakening: A Stark Reality
Tisa Legal Media began in a small apartment in Hollywood, California, where founder Christopher Tisa was producing legal media for law firms. While working as a legal videographer, he witnessed a troubling reality: outdated technology, poorly captured testimony, and rising costs were making justice harder to access — even jeopardizing cases.
This experience revealed a deeper problem — an industry that too often put profits before precision, creating barriers that kept many Americans from pursuing justice.
The Challenge: Elevating Integrity Over Profit
Christopher saw a path forward: build a company that prioritized accuracy, integrity, and accessibility over everything else. That meant rethinking how litigation services were delivered — lowering costs, increasing quality, and expanding access without compromise.
The Foundation: Tisa Legal Media
With that vision, Tisa Legal Media was born — not just as a court reporting company, but as a mission-driven partner dedicated to improving the legal process. By investing in innovative technology and specialized workflows, TLM enhanced precision and efficiency while passing those savings directly to clients.
The Impact: A New Paradigm
What began as a one-person operation quickly grew into a recognized leader in ethical, technology-forward litigation support. Through transparent pricing, scalable services, and a relentless commitment to accuracy, TLM removed barriers and made high-quality legal support more affordable and accessible.
The Vision: A Future of Equitable Justice
Today, TLM stands at the forefront of a movement toward a more equitable legal system. With every deposition, hearing, and trial, we advance our mission: to make justice accessible to everyone. And as we continue to grow, we’re committed to developing better legal technology, driving down costs, and pushing the industry toward a future where fairness is the standard — not the exception.
