BUSINESS CONTINUES IN LOCKDOWN

The wellbeing of our staff and our clients continue to be our priority as we follow guidance issued by the Government and Public Health England. The majority of the team are working from home. Our offices will continue to be open for receiving documents by post or courier, but we are not currently able to offer in person meetings.

Whittles, as a business, is comparatively fortunate. The initial lockdown proved that we can provide continuity of service with minimal disruption to clients. We were able to close our offices and yet operate effectively but remotely.

Our partners and staff will once again look after your needs from the comparative safety of their own homes. Effective communication remains a key component to working with you. As well as being able to contact us via the usual telephone number, we would like to highlight the following:

Video or call
Thanks to video conferencing technology we can host online meetings of all sizes for our clients and contacts. Please contact your usual Whittles contact to arrange. 

Electronic communication where possible
We continue to recommend all communication with partners and staff, at least initially, is by email. All our partners and senior staff have direct email addresses on their website profiles. See Our People.

Client portal
If already a client, please consider using our client portal for securely sending and sharing documents. You can read more about this facility here.
