How have you coped through the pandemic?

Thanks to our fantastic support team; we have been able to remain fully functional since March 23rd.

The office has been manned throughout, and thanks to technology, everyone in the team has been able to work from home and deal with everything that’s been thrown at them very efficiently. Though am not sure about the balance of “home schooling” with work, they have been required to do – they all deserve a medal!

Video calls have replaced face to face meetings and have become the new “normal”. So many of our clients are “vulnerable” or regarded as “at risk”, we want to protect them and for that matter, all our clients. Therefore, unless it is unavoidable, we will continue not to hold face to face meetings.

We are so grateful to our clients who have been so understanding, through these uncertain times. Not only dealing with the pandemic restrictions but also the volatility within the stock market too and how this has affected their investments.

Providers have really tried their best to react to the difficulties of “lockdown”; many of their services being offered from home-based operatives. This has presented challenges surrounding turnaround times in dealing with queries. Thanks to our clients who have been understanding of the situation, delays have been manageable. The challenge of providing signatures on documents is something where advances in technology have also helped – an increased acceptance of electronic or scanned signatures has helped us. It is still a requirement on many legal documents that the signature is an original. This has presented it’s own challenges – standing on a client’s driveway, under an umbrella, passing a document through a kitchen window to obtain a signature and trying to ensure the document didn’t get smudged in the rain!!!

It will be very interesting to see how the current situation evolves; though we are confident that with regular communication, support from clients, our team and providers, we are well equipped to cope.
