We will leverage our technology and other infrastructure to continue to provide service to our clients from outside.
Our leadership team is closely following the developments and updates from our governments and the advice of health officials. Please refer to our website and social media channels for Firm updates related to COVID-19. We will advise once normal in-office business operations resume.

If you have a current matter or appointment, please contact your lawyer for updated instructions.
If you have a delivery, please contact the main contact number for the appropriate office.
