Legal services reporters conduct court reporting.

Legal services reporters serve as reporters to staff judge advocates of major base or station commands and to the officer in charge of a Legal Service Support Section that provides legal services support to a major Marine Forces command.

Reporters record the proceedings of special and general courts-martial, formal investigations, administrative boards, staff meetings, and other similar bodies (hearings) and prepare or supervise preparation and assembly of typewritten, summarized, or verbatim transcripts; review records of proceedings for administrative completeness and technical accuracy.
