Hearing Services for Arbitration and Litigation

TERES runs the services an arbitration or court hearing depends on, including SIAC and HKIAC hearings: real-time transcription, interpretation, electronic hearing bundles, electronic presentation of evidence and hearing logistics.

Each is delivered as a managed service for courts, arbitral institutions and law firms, run by TERES staff, with bundles and case documents hosted on the TERES DASH platform.

How a TERES Engagement Works

TERES services are managed engagements, scoped and quoted per matter rather than sold as self-serve software. Pricing depends on hearing length, language, turnaround and the combination of services required. A demonstration of real-time transcription and hearing support can be arranged on request.

Turnaround, accuracy, availability and support commitments are published in the TERES Service Level Agreement, including 99.9% monthly uptime for the DASH platform core; critical (P1) issues affecting a hearing receive an initial response within 15 minutes, 24/7. Answers on languages, data retention and confidentiality are in the hearing services FAQ.
