Legal transcription is a great career choice due to the ease of getting started and the abundance of work available.

Generally, businesses require their employees to have a strong working knowledge of legal terminology, the English language, and the use of correct grammar. It is also a good idea to become familiar with the fundamentals of law, the court systems and litigation and to know how a law office works in order to ensure success in the business. Legal transcriptionists are generally required to be masters at dictation because they will use it so frequently on the job. It is wise for individuals to do extensive research on legal transcription before choosing it as a career. Researching individual businesses requirements is of even greater importance because all businesses are entitled to set their own qualifications to be required of their employees.

In addition to online and college courses, many employers will allow individuals to train on the job, so they can earn money and train at the same time. This option is more convenient for the transcriptionist but can be a hassle if it is a small company. With that said, most businesses that choose to allow for on the job training have several well-trained transcriptionists on staff who have the time and skill to train newcomers properly. Although this option can take more time, businesses that use it are able to personally mold individuals into the type of workers that their company needs and are more likely to keep employees longer.
