“Kerry is timeous and accurate. Her rate is extremely reasonable, and she goes that extra mile in times of pressure to enable the job to be carried out and completed with her continued attention to detail.”

 

Bruce Frew (Barrister at St Philips Chambers)

 

“I am delighted to recommend Kerry’s work. Kerry has typed my dictation (which is a challenge to anyone) quickly, accurately, and without complaint. I have been impressed by her willingness to learn and adaptability. I am looking forward to continuing to work with her.”

 

Raymond Cox KC (Fountain Court Chambers)

 

“Kerry Parker has been undertaking audio transcribing for me for over 10 years.

 

The work which Kerry does for me involves the typing of Opinions, Advices, Written Arguments, Pleadings, Letters, as well as technical drafting work such as Contracts, Statutory Regulations etc. Much of this is specialist regulatory and commercial work, some of it international. It is not uncommon for the documents Kerry works on to be complex: in a large case, a single document may extend to well over 100 pages and involve a wide variety of technical terms and names, all of which must be transcribed with scrupulous accuracy.

 

We first started working together in 2014 and Kerry very quickly adapted to my particular area of legal drafting and was soon turning work around extremely quickly and with ever-increasing accuracy.  Kerry has been familiar with the work and with the way I dictate it for some years, so that I am fully confident that any piece of work I send to her will be returned swiftly and without errors.

 

There are particular qualities about Kerry which I would wish to stress.  First, she is prepared to put herself out to ensure that a piece of work is returned very quickly.  She has undertaken work for me – for example in urgent cases – working late into the night or in the early hours of the morning and at weekends. If she can make time to do the work, she will, and she unfailingly delivers on what she promises. Second, she is concerned to ensure that her work is accurate.  She will check through everything before sending it back whilst faithfully sticking to what I have recorded.

 

I have come to rely upon Kerry for her work. She is unfailingly calm and helpful, and I have no hesitation in recommending her.”

 

Timothy Dutton CBE, KC (Fountain Court Chambers)

 

“I have used Kerry’s transcription service from time to time for preparation of arbitration awards. Even though this is irregular work, Kerry has always responded promptly and produced accurate and reliable transcription.”

 

Tony Marks (ArbDB Chambers)

 

“Fast and efficient service, great quality too. Would highly recommend and will use Kerry’s services again! Kerry helped out in a very short timescale and turned around the piece of work to an excellent standard.”

 

Natasha Jacques, Solicitor at Howells Solicitors LLP

 

“I needed a transcript preparing at short notice mid-trial; Kerry turned it round in double quick time – outstanding service and accurate – thanks!”

 

Tim (Favell Smith & Lawson Solicitors)

 

BUILDING SECTOR

 

I have been using Kerry at Word Perfect for remote transcription services for a little while and have found her to be consistently responsive, reliable and accurate. When circumstances dictate turnaround times, which are always more than acceptable, have been further reduced to comply with deadlines. I would have no hesitation in recommending her services.

 

Martin Crosthwaite, Crosthwaite Commercial

Kerry has been typing Home Buyers and Valuation Reports for us for over 10 years. She is super-efficient, being able to work within our deadlines no matter how tight. The quality of the work has always been first class and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to any fellow surveyors or colleagues who require typing or transcription work.

 

Mark Bennett, BSc MRICS – M Bennett Associates

​

I contacted Kerry in a bit of a panic, needing a typist for our surveying reports at pretty short notice. She took the time to speak to me, listening to my requirements and got cracking straight away! Every job has been perfect, her communication is second to none and her can do and calm attitude makes her a pleasure to deal with. Many thanks for your hard work, Kerry – it’s been much appreciated.

 

Emma Walker MARLA AssocRICS Residential Surveyor & Valuer / Owner at EW Estates Ltd

 

At my last employment, all my surveys were created with standard paragraphs so no real typing had to be done. When I left all my survey reports had to be typed, this was a big change for me. Kerry Parker’s details were passed onto me, I contacted Kerry and since November 2021 Kerry has been typing all my survey reports. The standard has been excellent and returned within the agreed time limit. Kerry has been a great support, provided good constructive feedback, helpful and easy to get along with. In summary, Kerry has proved to be a great asset and I have been delighted with her help and typing capabilities.

 

David J Blakeley FRICS, Chartered Surveyor

 

Kerry at Word Perfect offers an excellent service which is both economic and prompt.  Since retirement having access to a professional transcription service has improved the viability of maintaining ongoing consultancy work prior to eventual full-time retirement.

MEDICAL SECTOR

 

We recently had the good fortune to find Mrs Kerry Parker whilst looking on the internet for medico-legal secretariat services. Our approach was for a limited amount of work, specifically data inputting but everything was done quickly, efficiently and to a high standard. Of great importance to our business are the legal requirements pertaining to data protection which we felt were dealt with impeccably and reassuringly.

 

We would recommend Kerry to anyone looking for medico-legal secretariat services. The help we were given could not be faulted and we would not hesitate to use Kerry again in the future.

 

Dr E Wilde, Consultant Clinical Psychologist, South Yorkshire

 

Word Perfect came highly recommended. Kerry’s work has exceeded my expectations. I am pleased to highly recommend Word Perfect.

 

Dr Maurice Mann

 

Kerry was recommended to me when I needed some interviews transcribed for my PhD research. I was highly impressed with her friendliness, flexibility, and the excellent quality of the finished transcripts. I have already recommended her to others and will continue to do so.

 

Peggy Haughton, PhD Student, Town & Regional Planning, University of Sheffield

 

I came across Word Perfect when I did a Google search of transcription services.  Everything that had come up so far was either too expensive or seemed very impersonal.  Then I found Kerry at Word Perfect who replied quickly to my email and was able to give me a very reasonable quote for the transcription that I needed to be done.  As a student, one of my major concerns was the price, but I also had concerns about quality and confidentiality due to the nature of the data that I needed to be transcribed.  Word Perfect reassured me on every point and offered to listen to my interviews before committing to an estimated price for the transcription.  I was very pleased with the professional, high quality, speedy and friendly service that I received from Word Perfect.  Kerry was always on hand should I have any queries and kept in touch with me throughout the process, keeping me updated on the progress of the transcription.  I would definitely recommend Word Perfect to other students requiring confidential transcription of sensitive interview data and indeed, I have been happy to recommend Word Perfect to both colleagues on my course and have passed on the details to my university.
