Wednesday 17th June 2020: Following the government allowing some non-essential shops and other retail businesses to reopen this week, we have considered what is best for our staff and our clients.

Although some of the services that we offer have essential, key worker status, we are able to provide these, for the most part, without having to reopen the office.

We have therefore decided to keep the office closed to clients for the time being. This is a purely precautionary measure and, while we are extremely keen to get back to business as usual, for safety’s sake we shall continue to err on the side of caution. We are aiming to review the situation during July, with the aim of possibly reopening the office to clients, by appointment only, on Monday 3rd August.

However, while our office remains closed, we remain firmly open for business. Over the past few months, we have gone to great lengths to ensure that we can continue to offer you the high-quality legal services that you have come to expect from us, and that will remain in place.

For all enquiries to do with Conveyancing and Property, Divorce and Children matters, Wills, Powers of Attorney and Estates, please call 01630 652405.
