A Message RE: COVID-19 from POTENTE

Potente, Business Lawyer and Company Formation

A message to our global community,

The health, safety, and well-being of the POTENTE team, our clients, and the communities in which we live is the most important consideration today and always. As we cope with the ever-changing circumstances related to COVID-19, we believe we have to take unprecedented steps to protect our team and our clients.

Although our offices will remain open and operational, we are making some adjustments to normal activities in order to increase social distancing in the workplace, per current public health directives and guidance. Effective immediately, we are also suspending travel and in-person client meetings; however, we will be available by teleconference or videoconference during normal business hours to assist you with your legal needs.

We look forward to getting back to business as usual as quickly as possible and we know this is a challenging time for everyone, but we will get through this together. Stay safe and healthy.
