To our clients
We are writing to you as our valued client to update further precautionary measures we are taking to protect the health and safety of both our clients and employees in response to the Coronavirus outbreak (COVID-19) having regard to the recent announcements of our Prime Minister and State Premier.
 
We write to you to assure you that our business remains operational and we are doing what we can to deliver ongoing service to our clients.
 
Following the Victorian Government Stage 4 Restrictions, as of midnight Wednesday 5 August 2020, our staff will be working remotely from home. All communications will be by telephone and email communications.
 
In relation to the signing of documents:
 

1. Verification of Identity can be conducted at Australia Post Offices.
   
   
2. Some documents may be able to be electronically signed.
   
   
3. In some very specific circumstances, a solicitor may be able to attend your home for the signing of Wills or Powers of Attorney.

These are very difficult and uncertain times for all of us, however the clear message being sent by our elected leaders is that we must, as a community, isolate as best we can in order to free up our hospital system to deal with the inevitable influx of critically ill patients requiring ventilation.
 
Please don't hesitate to contact our office directly if you have any concerns or questions.
 
Kind regards
Anthony Bowlen and Wayne Dunstan
Principals
BOWLEN DUNSTAN & ASSOCIATES PTY
