However, we are still here to help you. We have a very small, core team remaining at each office and the bulk of our legal and property teams are working remotely and are available to assist you by way of telephone, video call or email.

Our main office number (01343 544077) is manned from 9am – 5pm, Monday to Thursday and 9am – 4pm on Fridays. Please call and you will be passed to the member of our team dealing with your business. If you are a new client requiring assistance, then you will be passed to someone who will be able to help.

Those members of our team who are working remotely remain contactable on their direct dial numbers and email. If the person who was dealing with your business is not currently working then your call or email is being diverted to the person progressing matters for you.
