Office Closure Due to Covid-19 Virus

Posted by On

It will come as no surprise to you that due to the unprecedented circumstances in which we find ourselves, we have taken the decision to close our offices for the time being.

We do not take this decision lightly, but have done so with the health and safety of all of our staff in mind.

Unfortunately, due to the nature of our business, we cannot work remotely from home, so until further notice, please do not send in paperwork for our attention either electronically or by hard copy.

Please keep an eye out for further information and updates here on our website and on the Courts Service website.

At present, the Courts Service have not decided to close for business, but this situation may change as time goes on.

We hope that you can bear with us for the moment, and in the meantime, please stay safe and well yourselves.
