Transcript of Video: Burton Law LLC Update and Policies Regarding Coronavirus (COVID-19)
This is attorney Thomas B Burton today I
wanted to talk about some steps my
office is taking in response to the
recent COVID-19 epidemic pandemic
worldwide and in the USA
commonly known as Coronavirus because
we work with many kinds of all age
groups I am being especially sensitive
to try to protect those older adults who
are at most at risk of the effects of
this disease first of all if you have a
meeting scheduled with my office and you
are at all feeling ill please let my
office know at least 12 hours in advance
of your meeting and we will work to
reschedule your meeting
or hold it virtually by videoconference
or by phone if you can give us 24 hours
notice that's even better
but before you come into the office
please let us know by email or phone and
we will work with you to reschedule your
meeting or hold it by phone or by
videoconference
my office is fully equipped to operate
virtually and remotely with most clients
for most matters so if you have
questions about using technology to
conference with me via video or by phone
please send those in by email and we'll
answer them as they come in and work to
assist you to use either your own
personal computer or your mobile device
to connect with us via either Skype or
Zoom or a phone conference second for
documents we ask that you use U.S. mail as
much as possible to return documents to
our office in order to limit
person-to-person contact during this
time in order to protect the staff who
work with me if at all possible if
you're returning something requested if
you can scan it to me by email that's
great if you don't know how to scan it
to me the second best option is
mail it to my office and I will receive
it in two to three days another option
would be you could fax it to me I also
allow you to drop document off but
during this time it would be better if
you can use U.S. mail or scanning those
documents to me then I can fully review
them and get back to you and again we
can discuss them via phone or video
conference for all meetings going
forward that are currently scheduled
we'll plan to hold your meeting unless
you are feeling at all ill in which case
I ask you to notify the office in
advance this is a developing situation
so we may update our policies consistent
with CDC guidelines and directives from
the state of Wisconsin and the court
system so I wanted to provide this brief
overview of things we're doing to
protect both our clients and our staff
and ourselves during this time we want
you to be well we are fully available
and operational and again my office is
already equipped to work with you
remotely so during this time we don't
anticipate any major interruptions to
the work on your case if you have any
questions about any of this please
contact the office by email preferred or
set up a time to discuss with me by
phone thank you and have a great day.
