    Client of the Month: Wiese Law Firm, PLC

    Wiese Law Firm, PLC opened in June 2007 in the Old Southwest neighborhood of Roanoke, Virginia. Vicki Wiese is a sole practitioner who focuses primarily on family law and domestic matters (such as divorce, domestic assault and battery, custody and child support). She also handles civil and criminal cases, as well as administrative claims.

    Automated Horizons was very pleased to be a part of launching this new firm. We provided consulting, hardware/software, customization, training and technology implementation.
    Wiese Law Firm is using the Tabs3 legal accounting system, as well as its companion case management software, PracticeMaster. As a solo practitioner, Ms. Wiese needed to maximize efficiency, so we implemented Dragon NaturallySpeaking voice recognition software and PaperPort Professional 11 for manipulating and OCRing scanned images.

    We congratulate Vicki on her new endeavor and we're sure she's off to a great start!
