The Standard

What is a Certified Legal Video Specialist?

A CLVS certification is awarded by the National Court Reporters Association (NCRA) and represents mastery of professional standards, ethics, and legal videography best practices.

Certification requires passing both a written exam and a production exam, and must be renewed every three years through NCRA-approved continuing education.

Apex Legal Video partners with court reporters to create a complete, synchronized legal record. We uphold the highest professional ethics as outlined by the CLVS Code of Professional Ethics.

"NCRA strongly recommends the use of a Certified Legal Video Specialist to ensure the integrity of both the videotaped legal proceedings and the utilization of the electronically recorded media."
