Kim Neeson, Court Reporter

Kimberley Neeson, FAPR, CSR (Ontario)

Kimberley Neeson has an illustrious career spanning over four decades in court reporting. She has been a pioneer in the field, especially known for her early adoption and promotion of realtime reporting in litigation in Canada.

In early 2022, Kim retired from court reporting to pursue a career in coaching and consulting. As part of her coach training, Kim realized that doing things that you love, that bring personal and professional satisfaction, and provide contribution to our world aren’t necessarily exclusive. It is with that mindset that she decided to return to the court reporting industry as a court reporter, taking up the reins of a 40-year career, in conjunction with her coaching and consultation practice.
