Business as normal – with 21st century input

In light of the seemingly inevitable escalation towards social isolation for our most vulnerable clients, we want to take this opportunity to reach out and reassure you that we can continue business as normal, although with some 21^st century input.

In the current circumstances, we know that people are becoming increasingly concerned about putting Wills into place or reviewing and updating their existing Wills, yet may be cancelling or not making appointments due to the advice to limit unnecessary social contact or the need to self-isolate.

We usually find that our clients get peace of mind once their affairs are in order and no doubt you will appreciate how important an up to date Will can be during this challenging time.

Despite the need to work from home or to self-isolate, our IT infrastructure allows us to continue providing a full legal service to our clients.  Whether this is by way of a simple telephone conversation, or one of the many video conferencing facilities available, our specialist team of Solicitors can still assist.

We have a Business Continuity Programme in place that allows us to progress existing matters and take on new instructions so a face to face appointment is not, at this time, necessary.

We are taking all possible steps to ensure our staff and our clients remain healthy and safe and so we will be conducting all client meetings remotely from now on unless there are exceptional reasons when we will do our best to accommodate the client’s individual needs.

We are dedicated to assist where we can. If you would like to obtain advice or guidance regarding the preparation of a Will, Lasting Powers of Attorney or would like assistance with a Deputyship Application, please contact our Private Client team on wills@franklins-sols.co.uk or call Northampton: 01604 828282 / Milton Keynes: 01908 660966.
