Does not include attorneys whose names do not appear as attorney of record on clerk’s spreadsheet. Attorneys above are mostly court appointed. Sorry if I miss some female attorneys who show up under different names)

I interviewed 12 of some of the best court reporters working the Harris County Criminal Courts and got their “inside information” on how jurors, lawyers, witnesses and judges can improve in trial to make it easier for the court reporter to take down ALL the information required of them for an excellent record.
