Jane Doyle, Owner

JD Reporting, Inc.


"I have had the distinct pleasure of using Bill Marinakis of VideoDep on a number of important depositions, and have found him to be a highly-skilled and a extremely professional videographer.  One of the concerns that I used to have when deciding whether to videotape a deposition was the level of intrusion and disruption the videotaping process might have on the deposition.  With VideoDep, that concern has been completely eliminated.  The equipment VideoDep uses is state-of-the-art, unobtrusive, and the videotaping of the deposition has gone seamlessly.  The sychronized end-product by VideoDep is also user-friendly and the video quality is excellent".

"Bill is a pleasure to work with!  He is attentive, thorough, and always ensures we have a quality video record of our depositions".


Ashlee Fletcher, Esq.

Struck Love, PLLC


"In a significant case I think it almost is malpractice no to video record depositions.  Not only does the camera help control the witness, video is a much more compelling way to present testimony for settlement and trial purposes.  In a recent large personal injury case VideoDep recorded nearly thirty depositions for me , and I used snippets from those depositions very effectively at mediation.  Dori is great with scheduling and the videographers are professional.  I love working with Bill and the other folks and recommend them highly".


Douglas Belknap, Esq.

Douglas A. Belknap, P.C.


"Bill, I want to thank you for going above and beyond when you were asked to help with getting the live audio feed from the medical boards set up.  You spent many hours making sure things went smoothly and, when they didn't , you went out of your way to get it figured out!!!  Thanks for recommending the headphone amplifier also.  It has helped out tremendously with the difficult medical board hearings.  You have always been professional and eager to help in any way you could.  I still remember being hesitant to hook up to your audio feed in videotaped depositions years ago because I didn't know what I was doing.  You showed me each time until I was confident to adjust my settings on my computer on my own.  Thanks for all of your patience and always being professional and helpful.  I will continue to recommend you for video jobs.  Thanks again".


Mary Davis, CSR

 "In my 33-Year career as a trial lawyer, I have personally conducted  over 1500 depositions.  In the past ten years, almost all of those  depositions have been videotaped.  Our firm did our best due diligence  to find the best firm in the country to do the work, to insure the  character and quality of excellence that our clients require and pay  for.  We found one firm, and only one firm, happily in the valley of the  sun, we use them exclusively.  VideoDep simply reflects excellence.  We  have set criteria at our law firm for all of our work; our clients  expect the best.  The best is defined as excellences in character,  quality and service to match.   In our experience with VideoDep; that  now spans more than 15 years, we have never had a stumble.  The product  arrives on time; the highest quality equipment is available from  VideoDep, and their operators exude professionalism.  Their leadership  through Bill is simply suberb.  It is appropriate form my discussion of  VideoDep to be on the record, because the very record that we utilize,  to make sure that we have visual impact is our testimony, is that record  that is created by VideoDep.  Let my record, talking about them be  clear.  They have no peer in what they do.  The service is excellent,  the pricing is fair, and the quality of their work is always the same.   On the record, Superb!"

".....   Perhaps the biggest compliment I can pay your firm is that I never knew  you were there once the deposition started, but I was keenly aware of  your presence when I looked at the excellent footage later.... I have  seen a number of lawyers in my years of practice and am keenly aware  that not all lawyers practice at the same high level of skill and  professionalism.  I have also, over the years, seen many videographers  and have come to the same conclusion about them.  I can say, however,  without equivocation, that VideoDep has no peer in the marketplace.  I  wish you and your company well and you may rest assured that as my  firm's clients require videographer services, the first name that I will  call will be VideoDep."

Michael R. Glover, 

Glover & Van Cott, P.A.

"VideoDep  has been my videographer for over 12 years, and has provided the  ultimate in quality service.  Bill and his team go the "extra mile" in  order to assure that each deposition runs smoothly and professionally.   They are all pleasant to work with and constantly strive to find ways  to assist the court reporter in making the best possible record.  The  one word to describe Bill and his company is quality.  There are many  legal videographers, but Bill and VideoDep demonstrate the highest  quality services and products.  I would recommend VideoDep in any  circumstances, and have.  I have the highest confidence in Bill."

Amy Abdo, Esq.

Fennemore Craig, P.C.

"As  a freelance court reporter, Bill's company VideoDep was the only  videographer that I would ever consider using (and I have worked with  others in the past).  He is a consummate collaborator for any project  that you assign to him.  He would many times educate me on  state-of-the-art equipment and products, assisting me to provide the  best product to my clients.  If I or my client wasn't sure what we may  need, Bill could always guide us and provide the best solution.  I have  recommend Bill's work many times to many associates and will continue to  do so.  Bill has also assisted me on personal projects at no charge,  making him not only a good business partner, but a good friend and I  would venture to guess that I am not the only client of his with that  experience."  (Amy Bowler, Court Reporter, Bowler Reporting)."
