Our workforce has been working in a hybrid model since 1 September 2021 with a mix of remote and office working, meaning that our lawyers and support staff are available as normal. We are confident about our capacity to continue to deliver our services while working in the office or remotely in the interests of protecting our staff and clients, for as long as necessary. If you have a meeting scheduled with a member of staff, they will contact you in advance to arrange a suitable alternative to a face-to-face meeting. Should you have any queries, please contact us via info@anthonycollins.com.
