OUR FIRM IS OPEN AND HERE FOR YOU
We continue to provide a full range of legal services despite the challenges of the current pandemic. New procedures have been implemented at our office to comply with social distancing and sanitizing requirements to protect the health and safety of our lawyers, staff and clients.
Most meetings with clients are being conducted by phone or virtually using Zoom and other communication media, however when necessary we are also scheduling in-office appointments.
Prior to attending our office, you will be asked a series of questions.
- Do you have any symptoms of illness?
- Have you been in contact with anyone that has symptoms of illness?
- Have you travelled off Vancouver Island in the last 14 days?
Safeguarding the health and safety of our lawyers, staff and clients is our paramount concern, therefore if you answer “yes” to any of the questions above, attendance at our office may not be permitted.
We look forward to assisting you with your legal matters.
JSGW&M has been providing quality comprehensive legal services to the people and businesses of Southern Vancouver Island for close to 30 years.
