We start every partnership with a period of free consultancy. This enables us to get to understand your case management systems. Evaluate where we can provide the best benefit to your business. And ensure we have a clear understanding of your style. We grasp what your business needs are. And strive to improve every aspect of your document production and typing requirements.

The simplest way to get started with us is to download our App onto your phone, or upload our software onto a handheld digital recording device. Record your document wherever you are and send it via our secure, encrypted, confidential service.

If you already have a digital dictation system for your internal use then a simple outsourcing module enables you to send your dictation to us. We work with all recognised digital dictation systems. And if you don’t have one we can discuss the pros and cons of each.

Document Direct will understand and then replicate your house style, and capture all your templates. We then type up your audio files and mark up corrections where appropriate.

We will agree a service level time for the return of your document. And help you to prioritise when you need your document back if you are on a deadline. Document Direct can return the document directly to your case management system or direct to the email address of your choice.
