For freelance and independent court reporters, few things are more frustrating than delayed payments. You’ve delivered your work, but the check is still weeks—or months—away. It’s stressful, unpredictable, and unsustainable.

At Court Reporters Clearinghouse, we believe you should be paid for your work when it’s done—not when your client finally gets around to paying. That’s why we use a bill-out payment model, and our reporters love it.

✅ What Is “Paid on Bill-Out”?

When you’re paid on bill-out, you receive payment as soon as the job is invoiced—not when the client pays. That means CRC pays you first, whether or not the attorney has submitted their payment yet.

Every other Friday, we process direct deposit payroll for all completed and billed jobs. That’s predictable, biweekly income you can count on—no more chasing checks or wondering when money will arrive.

💰 How Much Do You Earn?

At CRC, you’re not just paid faster—you’re paid more:

  • 80% of the bill-out amount for jobs you report for your own clients

  • 10% commission on jobs others cover for your clients (overflow)

  • 10% commission on any video work associated with your jobs

And because CRC handles billing, collections, and production, you’re free to take more jobs—or just enjoy more free time. Either way, you earn more and stress less.

🧾 Why It Matters

Being paid on bill-out means:

  • No waiting for client checks

  • No awkward follow-ups or collection calls

  • No uncertainty about when you’ll be paid

You’ll have predictable cash flow, confidence in your income, and the freedom to focus on what you do best—reporting.

We handle the heavy lifting like accounting, scheduling, and transcript production so you don’t have to.
