LaJuana R. Pruitt
A native of New Mexico, LaJuana traveled the east coast of the US in 1979, settling in Florida. She attended the Sarasota County Technical Institute in 1983 seeking a career as a court reporter. While a student she worked in the Media Department where she discovered her love of video production. Shifting her focus from standard court reporting to this new and exciting legal video services realm, in 1988 she traveled to Hawaii where she enrolled in a series of workshops for professional legal videographers. LaJuana obtained her CLVS certification in 1989 and founded Premier Video Productions in Bradenton, Florida.
For more than 30 years Premier Video has provided quality video of sports, live entertainment, commercials, conferences, interviews, etc., as well as litigation video to the legal community.
In addition to managing a successful woman-owned small business she has a long history as a volunteer for community projects. As the United States faced enemies from abroad, LaJuana, with the help of other community members, setup a booth at a local mall for families to deliver personal videotaped messages to their loved ones who were serving in Operation Desert Storm. The program was a huge success and every video was delivered to the men and women serving their country from their families.
LaJuana has served on the CLVS counsel at The National Court Reporters Association for almost 10 years. Serving on the CLVS counsel is challenging and rewarding. As a CLVS counsel member we make the changes to ensure our members are kept up to date on the ever changing technology of our profession.
