“I employed Nicole Mackay as my personal assistant for over ten years. While Nicole primarily attended to my work she was always the person called upon by my chamber mates in times of emergency. If the chips were down… call on Nicole.
Apart from her amazing skills Nicole has a level of experience which I think would be difficult to match. When Nicole worked for me and my chamber mates she prepared documents in the Magistrates Courts (in both Queensland and New South Wales), the District Court (Queensland, New South Wales and the County Court of Victoria), the Supreme Courts of Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria, the Court of Appeal of Queensland, the Court of Criminal Appeal of New South Wales, The Federal Court of Australia (several different registries), the Full Federal Court, the Family Court, the Federal Magistrates Court and of course the High Court of Australia. The range of litigation included family law, criminal law, administrative law, commercial litigation, personal injuries claims, appeals, and several High Court appeals and Constitutional cases. Nicole has prepared documents ranging from claims in the Magistrates Court through to outlines of argument in Constitutional cases.
In the course of her work she’s dealt wonderfully with all kinds of clients, hundreds of solicitors, hundreds of public servants, countless barristers, dozens of judges’ associates and quite a few judges.
She left my employment to pursue her own business. I was devastated to lose her but I use her services constantly.”

“I have found the service provided by Rapid Scribe to be excellent. Turnaround time on the work is fast and reliable and the work product has been very accurate.
Nicole’s help with things such as formatting of documents and locating and inserting passages from statutes, cases and the like into my documents is of great assistance.”

"I have had the pleasure of Nicole's assistance for the last 2 years.
The typing is 100% accurate requiring very little or generally no formatting.
Never once has my typing taken longer than 24hours turnaround. I effectively have the convenience of a typist on call without the expense of a full time employee."

“I have been using Rapid Scribe in the preparation of legal reports which require a fast turnaround and attention to detail.
I have found Nicole Mackay to be diligent and professional and the attention to detail is excellent.
I would unreservedly recommend her service.”

I have been using Rapid Scribe for several months now and I don’t know how I ever managed without it. I was using Dragon until my work expanded beyond my capacity to continue this way. Rapid Scribe is a prompt service, always willing to please.
The turnaround time is good, they can make intelligent use of templates and setting out is professional.
Accuracy is very good and the fees are competitive. Rapid Scribe can adapt to different types of tasks quite readily. The service has made my weekends more enjoyable being able finalise my work during the working week. I would recommend the service to other professionals.

“Nicole has been doing my overflow typing for the past year. The turnaround time on non-urgent work is fast - usually within 24 hours.
Nicole is very professional, and she understands the importance of the confidentiality of legal work, and the need to get documents 'off the desk' quickly and accurately."

I have found Rapid Scribe’s services to be great. I dictate - send - and later get to work editing - which forces me to think about the contents of my advice. The really easy part is just sending the dictation and getting documents back.
While I can type - it saves so much time and gives an opportunity to double check initial views. My criticism (its not really) is that Rapid Scribe process the dictation so quickly - there are some matters I don't want to think about so quickly!

“I have used Nicole’s services (often at very short notice).
Her response time is excellent (always within 24 hours) and the accuracy of the typing is faultless.
