About us
About Archetype Transcription Service
We are an Ontario-based court transcription service providing accurate, certified transcripts to lawyers, paralegals, and legal professionals across the province.
Our background
Archetype Transcription Service was founded to meet the demand for reliable, professionally prepared court transcripts in Ontario. We work exclusively with the legal community, and our focus on a single jurisdiction means we understand the procedural and formatting requirements that matter to counsel.
Our transcriptionists have extensive experience with Ontario court proceedings at every level — from the Ontario Court of Justice to the Court of Appeal. We are familiar with the terminology, the pace, and the formatting conventions that Ontario courts and tribunals require.
We built this service around the needs of busy legal practices. That means clear communication, firm quotes before work begins, and transcripts delivered on time — without the uncertainty that can affect time-sensitive filings.
