Dear Clients

office-entrance-restricted

We have temporary measures in place to reduce the spread of coronavirus while we continue to work on your cases and assist clients with urgent matters.

UPDATE AS OF MARCH 17, 2020:
All appointments and meetings with our office are currently being conducted by telephone only. This will be the case for at least the 14 days. We remain open and available to assist you with emergency custody/access issues affecting you and your children, as well as CAS apprehensions and other urgent matters. We are taking this precaution to be socially responsible and to protect you and your families.

On the morning of March 17, 2020 we received a memo from our court’s administration informing us that a courthouse employee tested positive for the coronavirus on the evening of March 16, 2020. That employee has not been at work in about a week, but anyone else including clients/litigants, and lawyers like myself who have been at 80 Dundas Street in the past seven days should be aware of this development.

Original Post
At about 5:30 pm on Sunday, March 15, 2020 the Ontario Superior Court of Justice announced that the Court has suspended its operations except for urgent matters due to the current coronavirus / COVID-19 situation. We are currently awaiting further details. If you have any court dates including motions, conferences, or trials this Tuesday or later, we will be contacting you as soon as possible with an update about what will be happening with your matter.

On Tuesday March 17, 2020, Ontario Superior Court of Justice operations will be suspended until further notice. Only urgent public health & safety matters, and urgent civil, family and criminal matters will be heard. Details to be posted tonight at https://t.co/AeuL0qN5jb

— Superior Court of Justice (ON) (@SCJOntario_en) March 15, 2020

Please be assured that our office is continuing all normal operations. We will continue to act on your behalf. Eric will continue to attend all required court dates on your behalf, and ensure that any teleconference or adjournment arrangements are made as needed. You will be kept updated. If an emergency situation arises in your matter, please contact our office. We will continue to be available to take action on your behalf if an urgent need arises.

Similarly, if you are a client with a Children’s Aid Society matter in London, we will continue to be available to assist you and your family during this time.

Please watch your e-mail inbox for further updates. We will also try to contact you by telephone if you have an imminent court date so that we can provide you with all of the details that you require.

In the meantime, if you have an appointment with us and are not feeling well, please do not come to the office. We will be happy to either accommodate your meeting by telephone, or to reschedule the meeting for a later date. Please call or e-mail us to make the needed arrangements.

Eric is a very professional, knowledgeable, kind lawyer. He knows the law inside and out, and will do everything in his power to help you with your case so you have the outcome you deserve. He takes the time to learn your situation and goes above and beyond to help you, often times calling out of his regular hours if needed. Thanks David and Eric it was a pleasure having you on my side. You both made a horrible situation a little bit easier to deal with.
