Surviving the Pandemic, November 2020

2020 has been a challenging year for everyone. The pandemic has affected many businesses, large and small. The Lacy Law Office has had to adjust the way we work so that we can continue to provide quality services and representation to our clients. We have transitioned to virtual and telephonic client meetings and conferences, appearing for court via Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Webex, and conducting Zoom mediations. Thus far, we have weathered the storm. We are happy that our doors are still open and that we can continue to help our clients with their legal issues. Thank you to all of you that have helped us stay in business this past year!
