Virtual Legal Services Allow Us to Assist Clients from All Over the World

As our lawyers practice law virtually you can speak with them by phone, email, Microsoft Teams, Skype, Zoom or a combination of the above. This means that we are not limited by the standard work day and can book appointments at various times during the day when you have time to chat. Timing will also be dependent on the lawyer’s schedule. You can book your consultation with us by calling us, emailing us or completing the contact form on our website. We do require a bit of paperwork before any consultation but once that’s done, your call, email, or Microsoft Teams session can happen quite quickly.
Once you’ve contacted us to book a consultation, you’ll receive an email with instructions on how to setup a meeting. Before we can speak with you, we are required by Law Society Rules to open a file for you, which requires that we collect some information from you including copies of 2 pieces of your identification. Depending on your matter, we may also have to conduct a conflict check through our own records, to ensure we are able to serve you. Once we receive the required information from you, we’re ready to meet you for your consultation and get started working on your immigration matter.
