Legal Authoring:
For Legal Authors & Legal Bloggers

At OutSec Legal, we are aware of the pressures faced by legal professionals. Our legal authoring services are designed with those needs in mind.

 

At OutSec Legal we have experienced legal transcriptionists who transcribe handwritten and digital dictation files from authors, writers and bloggers. 

What is Legal Authoring?

Legal authoring is a form of technical writing that professionals in the legal field use. The basis for any kind of legal authoring is, of course, legal authority. Therefore, judges and solicitors construct opinions based on statutes and regulations to back up and support their ideas.

 

A legal writer always includes appropriately formatted citations which only those who have worked in the legal sector would know how to type.

 

Legal writing is technical in the sense that it often uses terms that people, who are not in the legal profession, are unlikely to comprehend, which is why experienced legal transcriptionists are needed for these kinds of document production.  The same can be said about citations.

Who processes our legal authoring work?

OutSec's legal authoring team is made up of legal secretaries and legal typists all of whom have worked in the legal sector for at least 10 years or more or had legal publishing experience.  All our legal authoring transcriptionists have been handpicked for their knowledge and expertise and are Microsoft Word experts and have advanced word processing skills including indexing and tables, footnotes and automatic numbering to name a few.
 
Many of our legal authoring team have CILEX 
qualifications or legal secretarial qualifications.  
 
All our legal authoring transcriptionists understand legal terminology including commonly used Latin terms.  This makes our legal authoring team one of the best in the industry.  All of our legal authoring transcriptionists have signed strict confidentiality agreements.
