Services during COVID-19
In response to the COVID-19 epidemic, safety of our clients and
colleagues is of paramount importance. Until further notice,
legal services will be available by phone, e-mail and video conference
only. As technology has been a mainstay in our practice, except for
face to face contact, our services have been largely uninterrupted.
We remain open from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday to Friday. All our
forms and documents are available to our clients electronically, on a
computer or mobile device. Notarizing and commissioning of documents
can also take place while practicing social distancing and most
signatures can be done electronically.
In cases where a client may not be familiar with setting up online/
electronic methods of communication, we are committed to helping
clients set up and navigate online tools necessary to allow us to
assist them safely and effectively. Our Technology Advisor, Steve
Tannahill (steve@uplawed.com), is our dedicated team member helping
with this effort.
In some cases, online meetings and telephone calls as a method of
communication or signing documents may not be suitable. Each
situation will be assessed individually and we will work with clients
to devise a sound plan consistent with Ontario health guidelines
(https://www.publichealthontario.ca/.)
Stay safe and take care of yourselves and one another.
Sincerely,
Dorota
