Keeping you safe, keeping us safe:
- Please only attend at our offices by prior arrangement.
- Our offices remain closed to the public except by prior appointment. We continue to provide telephone or video conferencing appointments.
- Please come to your appointment alone unless you are instructing Adams Harrison with others. You should only attend in any event with others from one other household than your own, in line with the current Government Guidance.
- All visitors must wear a face covering when entering our offices. If you consider you are exempt from wearing a mask then a face to face appointment will not be possible. Your consultation with us will need to take place remotely. Therefore, please advise at the time of making your appointment if you are unable to wear a mask so an appointment by remote means is arranged.
- All visitors to our offices will have their name and contact details recorded. This is in line with Government regulation and linked to “Track and Trace” requirements. The information will be retained for a minimum of 21 days.
- To maintain a Covid 19 free environment for all visitors and staff, if any of our colleagues complain of feeling unwell and/or exhibit Covid 19 symptoms, they will be asked to undergo a simple, contactless temperature test. The outcome of this will determine whether they remain at work or are directed to return home to self isolate.
- We have Perspex screens in our interview rooms. These help keep you and us safe.
