For more than thirty years Rough and Associates Court Reporters has been serving Seattle lawyers with professionalism and integrity. We furnish independent contracting court reporters for depositions, arbitrations, courtroom proceedings, and other occasions when a written record is crucial. Our firm blends sophisticated technology with hometown personal service.

Our court reporters are all qualified by State and National examinations, and have experience reporting testimony from a vast array of technical cases, in subjects ranging from medical to maritime to construction to cyberspace to patents.

Over the years Rough & Associates has been selected to report secret investigative Federal hearings, multi-partied and highly-publicized asbestos litigation, civil litigation involving giants in the aircraft, technology, timber, and retail industries. We take pride that, among our clients, so many are members of the prestigious American College of Trial Lawyers, and we feel privileged to be part of the legal process.

Linda Rough founded Rough & Associates in 1978. A committed professional, Linda is also a member of many civic and professional organizations, and is proud to support her neighborhood and her city.
