Transcription Technologies in the Law Firm
A Speakeasy Solutions presentation on Transcription Technologies in the Law Firm. This video is based on a presentation Alexandria Carstens gave before an audience of Legal office professionals.
The focus of the presentation is to provide an overview regarding the various transcription solutions available today, incorporating Dragon speech recognition and/or a professional dictation solution (Olympus or Philips).
While a lengthy video, it does move fairly quickly in order to cover as many pertinent points as possible.
