USA vs. AT&T

How it all began …
In 1980, parties involved in the trial of the United States of America vs. AT&T, known as the divestiture trial, wanted to utilize the latest in computerized transcription technology and they hired Al Betz & Associates, Inc. to handle the job. This case provided an amazing opportunity to our company - applying our court reporting expertise in the case that sparked the telecommunications revolution. The government claimed that AT&T was operating as a monopoly and should be broken apart. Two years and 25,000 transcript pages later, the judge agreed with the government and AT&T was divided into seven separate companies.
