Integration of Philips SpeechExec Software and Nuance® Dragon® Professional Enhances Efficiency, Accuracy and Time Savings for Minneapolis Law Firm
Chicago, IL (PRWEB) June 28, 2016 -- A product implementation conducted by President of Dictationproducts.com, Ken Kloss, with Minneapolis law firm, Brown and Carlson, PA., resulted in the integration of Philips recording software and Dragon® Professional speech-recognition increasing overall efficiency throughout the firm. With both solutions fully deployed among the entire firm of 46 individuals, including lawyers and their support staff, each employee experienced an average time savings of an hour and a half each day.
“We have seen a significant ROI since the implementation of Philips software and Dragon Professional into our law firm,” Douglas J. Brown, Managing Senior Shareholder/Attorney for Brown and Carlson, PA., said. “Without exaggeration, it has helped us put an additional 1½ hours back into each of our days, which translates into a real financial gain via billable hours.”
“When Philips software is integrated with the Dragon Professional solution, attorneys have the advantage of seeing the text as they speak, ensuring greater accuracy,” Kloss explained. “This dictation is also bundled with a compressed audio file, further guarding against mistakes. This allows legal assistants to simply edit the dictation instead of spending valuable time transcribing an entire recording. They now have the ability to edit speech-to-text documents three times faster than typing alone, reducing what used to be a 30 or 40 minute task to just ten minutes.”
Kloss added that these results present several opportunities for legal practices. “This is ideal for firms looking to adjust attorney to support staff ratios, do more with less, and increase billable hours,” he said. “Staff can redirect time once spent on transcription and document management to more pressing, and profitable, matters.”
For Brown and Carlson, PA., Kloss explained that a great deal of the success of the launch was a result of a strong staff buy-in, starting with senior leadership and support staff. After an individualized, one-hour training, each staff member was able to take full advantage of how Dragon Professional, paired with Philips SpeechExec software, added time to their day, streamlining the document creation process for both attorneys and support staff. With great strides in both technological growth and overall workflow, the power of the integration of these products resulted in a powerful impact on the firm’s bottom line.
