Socially distant, legally active

UPDATE:

Dear friends and clients,

In an effort to minimize community spread of the COVID-19 virus in Ottawa, the partners have made the decision to close our office, but we continue to provide legal services remotely.

Voicemails left at 613-594-5100 will be checked remotely, so please feel free to leave us a message or send an email.  Check the Team page to look up emails.  We thank you for your patience and cooperation as we all take what steps we can to self isolate and wish everyone safety, good health and serenity as we work together to overcome this health emergency.

Sincerely,

The JMA Team
