Should you hire a court reporter for your Florida family law hearing? In most cases, it is important to do so, because the court reporter prepares a transcript of what was said at the hearing. Without this transcript, you may not be able to appeal the court’s ruling. This was an issue in the case Lopez v. Fernandez, 3D25-486 (Fla. 3d DCA July 23, 2025).
