To Whom It May Concern,
I am writing to express my keen interest in the various Legal Transcription opportunities listed on the website. With a strong foundation in legal studies, advanced administrative and transcription skills, and current experience with eScribers, I am confident in my ability to provide accurate, efficient, and confidential transcription services that meet your high standards.
As a First-Class Honours graduate in Criminology from the University of Westminster, I have developed a solid understanding of legal systems, terminology, and professional ethics. My academic background is complemented by practical experience, including a placement with the Metropolitan Police at Hendon Police College, where I gained first-hand insights into legal proceedings, community engagement, and forensic practices.
In addition to my educational and law enforcement background, I am currently in the hiring process with eScribers as a Legal Transcriber. This role has already allowed me to demonstrate my ability to accurately transcribe court proceedings and legal hearings using specialised software and formatting standards. Through this experience, I have developed a strong grasp of quality assurance in transcription—proofreading for clarity, resolving audio inconsistencies, and ensuring the legal integrity of documents.
My previous roles, including as a Shop Administrator and Teacher Assistant, have strengthened my skills in communication, time management, record-keeping, and data handling—all critical to maintaining the precision and discretion required in legal transcription. I am proficient with transcription tools and Microsoft Office, and I am quick to adapt to new technologies and workflows.
I take pride in handling sensitive information with the utmost confidentiality and professionalism. I am also a collaborative team member who values open communication and meeting tight deadlines without compromising accuracy.
Thank you for considering my application. I would be thrilled to bring my background and enthusiasm for legal transcription to your team.
Yours sincerely,
Pearl Fernandes.
