Increased Out-of-Office Productivity for Gilbert + Tobin

Gilbert + Tobin becomes first Australian law firm to install BigHand Digital Dictation software for BlackBerry.

 

Sydney, Australia (PRWEB) December 22, 2007 -- Australian law firm Gilbert + Tobin has successfully piloted BigHand Digital Dictation workflow software incorporating the first installation of enterprise dictation for BlackBerry in the Australian legal sector.

The pilot enabled Gilbert + Tobin lawyers to immediately record and send instructions and/or dictation wirelessly via their BlackBerry Smartphone to office-based staff, regardless of their location at the time. BigHand's Digital Dictation for BlackBerry removed the need for users to carry additional dictation hardware, and the instant delivery method improved document turnaround times.

Gilbert + Tobin Partner, Rani John, led the pilot and was happy with the usability.

"The dictation facility via BlackBerry is very easy to use. It is a great tool for progressing documents while out of the office," Ms John said.

BlackBerryRecordGilbert + Tobin Lawyer Cheryl Roberts added "Digital dictation via BlackBerry is a real time saver! In addition to being able to dictate from anywhere and have it ready on your return to the office, it has an added advantage of allowing you to communicate with your secretary by voice rather than phoning, or sending a time consuming email. I really think this option will add value to all."

Jacqueline Burns, Legal Secretary to Cheryl Roberts at Gilbert + Tobin was impressed with the sound clarity of the digital dictation.

"I personally find the digital dictation voice recording a lot clearer in sound, even when Cheryl sends me a dictation from somewhere with a noisy background using her BlackBerry, you could tell she was on the move, but it didn't phase me at all," Burns said.

BigHand Digital Dictation software is used by four of the top five Australian law firms, as well as Crown Law QLD, Deacons Hong Kong, Ebsworth & Ebsworth, Gadens Lawyers, Hicksons, Home Wilkinson Lowry, and Keddies Litigation Lawyers.
