As an Essential Business, we are dedicated to remaining open and are offering phone consultations 7 days a week, as well as in person consultations with clients and potential clients by appointment only. We are taking extra measures to ensure your safety and the safety of our staff by strictly limiting the number of lawyers, employees and clients in the office at any one time, widening our meeting spaces and sanitizing meeting spaces before and after consultations.
