Mehaffey Transcription prices standard transcription from the spoken-word count. Speaker labels, timestamps, and generated summaries are excluded. Upload your files, review the count and rate in the quote, and pay after the amount is confirmed. Bulk backlogs receive a custom quote after we review the file set and turnaround.
| Service | Price | Best for | Deliverable | Court-ready | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard transcript | $0.03 / word | Cross-referencing witness statements | Timestamped Word document | Yes | Start |
| Bulk case backlog | Custom quote | Cross-referencing witness statements | Every recording, pulled from your link | Yes | Start |
Pick any or all of these when you place an order. One $50 covers whatever you choose:
| AI reference folder | Your whole case, discovery and transcripts, converted to plain text any AI tool can read. Drop the folder into Claude, ChatGPT, or NotebookLM and start asking questions. We include an index, a single-file version of the whole case, and a page of prompts to get you going. |
| Discovery summary | A plain-English rundown of what's in the production: either a straight inventory of what you got, or a narrative summary of the case. Written as drafts for you to review, not filings. |
| File conversion | A phone dump that only opens in some reader program the DA sent? Jail calls in a format nothing plays? Surveillance video off a gas-station DVR? Send it over. We convert it into files you can actually open, hash everything at intake, and never touch your originals. |
No idea what format you're holding? That's fine. Upload it and we'll figure it out.
The quote confirms the schedule for your word count and files. Need it sooner? Rush any order for $50 and we will confirm the next-business-day schedule after intake. Large bulk backlogs get a schedule with the custom quote.
Our rates are posted right here, which makes funding motions easy: print this page, attach it to your motion, and the invoice will match it to the dollar. Mark your order court-appointed and we start without any payment up front. You get a print-ready quote for the motion, and once we deliver, that same page becomes an itemized invoice with the case caption, order cite, and a hashed file list, ready to drop into your voucher packet. The county pays us when the county pays. That's between us and the county, not you.
