We're COVID Safe

We have officially registered as a COVID Safe Business with the NSW Government. This means that we have implemented a COVID Safe safety plan which will ensure the continuing service provision to our clients in a manner that keeps everyone safe. 

Conferences:

• The most important strategies we are implementing include  conferencing clients via secure Zoom meetings which are password protected. 
• If face-to-face meetings are required at our offices in person we will be guided by the COVID-19 Safety Management Directive set out by our office at Level 1, 299 Elizabeth Street Sydney.
• This includes a requirement for all persons entering the premises regardless of status or purpose to enter their details in the attendance log which is located in the entry foyer of Level 1.
• All persons entering are to hand sanitise upon entering the premises with sanitising stations located in the entry foyer to Level 1.
• There are new restrictions in relation to meeting rooms on Level 1 being maximum 2 persons at one time. This includes the solicitor that you are meeting. Unfortunately this means that if you are booked for a face-to-face conference that you will not be able to bring along a support person.

Gaol Visits:

• We are continuing to see our clients in custody at NSW Correctional Centres where necessary.
• We are focusing on engaging audio visual systems where possible to conference our clients in custody.
• We are engaging the general conventions of regular hand washing and hand santitising during our time in a NSW Correctional Centre. 
• We are also maintaining 1.5 metres physical distancing from other persons or where not possible we are using non-contact legal visit rooms. 

Witnessing Legal Documents:

• Where possible we are engaging in the use of Adobe e-signing technology in our legal documents.

Flexibility:

• We are continually engaged with the latest news and are poised to change where necessary to ensure the safety of our community.
