Access Session Materials
Search transcripts from the Transcript page and access shared Session files from your Prevail Briefcase. Each page provides access to your Session materials, making it easy to review and retrieve important information from your legal proceedings.
The Transcript page offers keyword searches across all available transcripts, including rough and certified versions. Results display Session Review links, speaker names, highlighted excerpts, and timestamps for quick navigation to relevant content. Additionally, you can view and download Session files from your Prevail Briefcase. Organization users have access to all Sessions for their Organization, even those they did not attend. Shared files for Server-Side configured Sessions remain available for up to eight hours after the Session ends.
Transcript Search
Use the Transcripts page to search across all available transcripts, including rough and certified versions, by entering a keyword in the Search box. Matching results include the Session Review link, the speaker’s name, a highlighted excerpt of the transcript content, and a timestamp range of the first and last appearance of the search term. Select the Legacy Transcript tab at the top of the page to search transcripts from Sessions held on our Legacy version of the Sessions application.
Organization users can search all transcripts associated with their Organization, including Sessions they did not attend.
Search Behavior and Matching
Transcript search is case-insensitive, treating all letters as lowercase. When you search for a single word, results will include both exact matches and partial matches. For example, searching for test may return test, testimony, testify, or testified.
If you type multiple words without quotation marks, the search returns results that include at least one of the words. For example, searching for under oath may return the complete phrase under oath, separate mentions of under and oath, or entries with partial matches such as oaths or underwriting.
To search only for exact matches, place the word or phrase inside quotation marks. For example, searching for "underwriting" will only return the exact matching word and will not include related forms such as under or underwriter. Placing phrases in quotes returns results where the words appear together, in that order, without other words in between. For example, searching for "under oath" only returns results with the exact phrase under oath.
Symbols, including &, |, and !, and wildcards such as *, %, and _ are not supported.
