Audio Recording Laws

Audio recording laws vary by jurisdiction, but generally fall into two categories: one-party consent and two-party consent. In one-party consent states, you can record a conversation if at least one participant (often yourself) agrees to the recording. In two-party consent states, all participants must consent to the recording. It’s important to know the laws in your area, as illegal recordings can lead to criminal charges and civil lawsuits. Always respect privacy and seek permission when possible, especially in sensitive situations or conversations.
