A message to all of our clients from John Elvidge QC – Head of Chambers

A message to all our clients

Like you we are having to adapt at pace to the outbreak of virus Covid-19, personally and professionally.

In challenging times it is vital that the public retains access to the justice system. We want to lend our support to you and your clients and are committed to continuing to provide advice and representation across the legal disciplines. Emergency applications will still need to be made, deadlines met, cases resolved. We are here to help.

Members of Chambers are utilising digital resources to engage with clients, courts and tribunals throughout the country and they remain available to advise  at short notice by telephone and a range of internet based media platforms. For this reason it would assist if you could send instructions electronically, if possible. Thank you.

Please contact our clerking team for assistance by telephoning 0191 2320541/01904 620048 or sending an email to clerks@derestreet.co.uk. If emails are intended for the family department please use hearinginfo@derestreet.co.uk.

I apologise for the temporary use of a partially automated reception service.

 

With best wishes,

 

John Elvidge QC

Head of Chambers
