The mission at Orange Coast Proofreading and Editing Services is to make you look good in print while making your life a little bit easier. I work with successful people who want their written work to shine.
SERVICES
Since January 2018 I've been working with court reporters to help make their work shine while making their lives a little bit easier. I accomplish this by offering quick turnaround time, reasonable rates, and dedication to making transcripts as error free as possible.
In addition to court reporters, I'm hired by people who are successful, but frustrated with writing in English because it's their second language. What these people want is their writing to reflect exactly how accomplished they are.
Editing Plus Individual Work:
This work comes as a package that includes editing of documents of your choice plus one-on-one time with me to review your writing and zero in on your trouble spots.
Please contact me for information.

ABOUT Cristi Saylor
I'm hired by people who are successful but frustrated with writing in English because it's their second language. What this group of people want is to have their writing reflect how accomplished they truly are. When you work with me you can expect me to edit some of your documents and then work with you individually to identify your trouble spots and show you how to correct them with laser-sharp focus thereby saving you time.
I am also hired by court reporters who want a skilled proofreader to proofread their legal transcripts so they can reduce their workload, increase their turnaround time, and turn in error-free transcripts. When you work with me you can expect clear communication, transcripts returned in a timely manner, and your life to be a little bit easier.
My background in the areas of education and science enable me to understand and edit or proofread a wide variety of materials. As a graduate student in education I worked extensively on mastering the analysis of English at a metalinguistic level. My teaching career included teaching anatomy which now lets me read medical transcripts with ease. As an English tutor I helped students learn to improve their writing skills through direct instruction and editing their papers.
My training for proofreading and editing includes a course on proofreading legal transcripts along with courses from UCSD's copyediting certificate program. My training in legal transcript proofreading was based on Morson’s English Guide for Court Reporters, Margie Wakeman Wells’ resources, and NCRA guidelines. In my editing work I've used the Chicago Manual of Style, The Associated Press Manual of Style and other grammar and punctuation books as references.
I'm always looking to improve and expand my knowledge base and find more ways to make my clients' lives easier. I find that one of the keys to this continued improvement is clear, open communication with my clients. I'm always grateful when a client lets me know how I can best meet their specific needs. This allows me to provide them with services tailor-made to their needs.
"Cristi Saylor has been my proofreader, or should I say lifesaver, for going on three years now. She is efficient, highly knowledgeable and has never once let me down. I don't know what I'd do without her. Her attention to detail, as well as her research on various topics that pop up in depositions is second to none. I would highly recommend her services!" - Viola Fedden, CSR.
"I honestly cannot say enough good things about Cristi Saylor, my blessed proofreader! I shudder to think about the work I sent out before I met her. She's not only exceedingly knowledgeable about punctuation and grammar, but even more importantly, she also finds my hidden errors by using common sense as she's reading for context to know when something is technically correct but it 'just doesn't sound right.' I'm so thankful that I found her, and I consider her an important, integral part of my production team!" -Erika "Rik" Rutledge, CSR.
