Receipt of audio file from court
Ubiqus (Acolad UK Ltd) does not have immediate access to the audio files of your hearing. We will have to request them to the court. In our experience, some courts are efficient in sending the audio back, some others aren’t. As part of our service, we will gladly chase the court for the audio if it is not provided within a reasonable time frame. Ubiqus (Acolad UK Ltd) cannot be held responsible for a slow response from the court. It often helps to have the client chasing the audio as well.
Once we have received the audio, we will be able to prepare an estimate for providing the transcript request.
Our estimate needs approval & prepayment
Upon written approval of our estimate and prepayment in full (including VAT), we will start work on transcribing the hearing.
Judgments need to be approved
All civil judgments need to be approved by the judge. We won’t be able to send you the judgment before the judge sends it back to us. The time taken by the judge to review the document is excluded from the agreed delivery time frame.
- Turnaround times
The turnaround time starts from when we receive the audio from the court and payment is carried out in full (including VAT).
Please note that in the case of judgments, the court must approve the transcript before we are able to release it to our client. We aim to amend and release the approved version on the day of receipt from the court
*This does not include Weekends or Bank Holidays. Read our Terms & Conditions here.
