New Safety Measures at Hodgkinsons Solicitors Implemented for Your Safety

On 20th March 2020 we took the unfortunate decision to close our office to the public. Since this date, all appointments have been carried out either via telephone, email or through a video conference call.

New Safety Measures at Hodgkinsons Solicitors Implemented for Your Safety

We would like to thank our Clients for co-operating with us and adjusting to these new methods of communication. In recent months we have adapted to remote working to ensure that we can continue as close to a ‘business as usual’ model as possible whilst limiting exposure between employees and Clients. The health and safety of both our Clients and employees has always been paramount to the way in which we operate, however, since initial social distancing measures were put in place in March, our focus on health and safety has now significantly increased. Our Team have been working relentlessly to ensure that our premises are COVID-19 secure as we are now ready to hold meetings within our office. Face to face meetings are available on an appointment only basis, where they cannot be carried out via telephone calls, email correspondence and video conferencing. 

To ensure that we are able to work safely with our Clients, please be rest assured of the following:

  • We have carried out a COVID-19 risk assessment and we have shared the results with our employees.
  • We have implemented cleaning, handwashing and hygiene procedures which are in-line with government guidance.
  • We have taken all the reasonable steps to help our employees work from home.
  • We have taken all reasonable steps to maintain a 2m distance in the workplace in line with the Government’s social distancing rules.
  • Where people cannot be 2m apart, we have implemented all of the practical solutions to manage the transmission risk i.e. protective screens in interview rooms.

We would like to thank you for your support and understanding during this difficult time. Please stay safe and alert in these unprecedented times. If you need to get in touch regarding a new or existing legal enquiry you can call our offices on 01754 897150, submit a contact form, email your query or message us directly on our social media channels and we will be in touch. Please be rest assured that we are here to help you through this time.
