Dragon NaturallySpeaking^® Legal Suite

 

"Like many lawyers, I was originally skeptical...Well, I can report that not only does it work, it allows me to dictate faster than I ever imagined." - Mark Nearenberg, Manhattan attorney

Dragon NaturallySpeaking Legal Suite can help you spend more time on professional legal tasks and less time on paperwork. Simply dictate naturally into your computer at up to 160 words per minute, and your words are immediately and accurately transcribed. You can use custom macro commands to insert boilerplate text, launch applications, fill out forms, and perform other complex tasks with a spoken word or phrase. The delays and costs of transcription services are eliminated. You produce more work in less time, reducing overhead, overtime, and stress.

Speak naturally and your words appear in your document as you expect. Dragon NaturallySpeaking Legal Suite is extraordinarily accurate thanks to new BestMatch™ III and BestMatch Plus technologies and a total vocabulary of 250,000 terms (160,000 active) that features thousands of legal terms, precedents, phrases, and abbreviations. Vocabulary Builder™ analyzes your documents automatically to find and add new words, specialized terms, acronyms, and proper names. You can customize your vocabulary by adding new terms at any time - even create multiple new vocabularies for different specialties or interests.
