Businesses worldwide have felt the effects of digital disruption. Technology has changed everything from the physical workplace environment to the ways we collaborate on projects, and your organization can't afford to be left behind. As a stereotypically more 'traditional' sector, law firms have been slower to adopt these modern ways and a lot of firms have mountains of paperwork that's legally required. But that doesn't mean that smarter legal transcription options can't help speed up workflows and make documentation a lot easier.

Like any business, law firms value efficiency, productivity and growth. Managing, processing and creating huge volumes of sensitive information is a job that takes a lot of organization and extremely high levels of security; more traditional methods of data handling have been considered a lot more secure than emerging technological methods for a long time, but as tech has evolved the transition to e-documentation has become a real option. There are software platforms that boast watertight security and are purpose built to store highly sensitive material.

Optimizing your processes: Tips and tricks

Your business workflows can be optimized to work smarter, and harder, for you. Holding onto old-school methods of recording and transcribing important information won't help you nurture a culture of growth and forward movement. Every day, law firms have extremely sensitive and important meetings with clients, colleagues, partners and employees; keeping track of the conversation is essential to legally documenting the progress of cases. Thanks to automated transcription technology, the process of recording and transcribing this sensitive material can be streamlined for efficiency - no more long hours typing up notes from client meetings.

Technology has disrupted the process of notetaking, too. Some law firms have dedicated assistants at the top meetings to take minutes and record the key takeaways, but modern firms are now recording these meetings using voice recording devices. These recordings can then be transcribed using Trint, changing the note-taking workflow for the better. Trint's transcriptions are easily searchable, and can be shared with other staff for collaboration and any edits. Looking for a specific topic from the meeting? Simply search within the app and find all the related content. Think about all you can get done in the time saved; productivity means growth. And for the most efficient way of recording and transcribing meetings, Trint's mobile recording and transcription app provides an easy way to record, upload and transcribe - all in one place.

A law firm isn't just a group of lawyers sitting in an office - they also have the usual teams you'd expect to find in any business.
