COVID-19, Don’t panic but take precautions
Dear Clients, Partners, and Friends,
As you know, my team and myself started our North Africa Law Firm https://www.ac-northafrica.com/ over 27 years ago, driven by the vision to better serve people such as our selves.
Family has always been the driving force behind everything we do at ABDELLY & ASSOCIATES. As such, we are truly shaken by the impact COVID-19 is having on families across the world. It is clear that we all have a role to play during this health crisis and we wanted to reassure you that we take ours very seriously; be it as a service provider, employer, family member, or as part of the wider community.
We remain dedicated to maintaining the level of service that you have become accustomed to.
To ensure everyone’s safety and the continuity of your service, our team has been fully operational from their homes for the last two weeks.
To say we feel pride in the way our team, and therefore the business, has reacted to the challenge would be an understatement; the attitude being very much reminiscent of the long standing wisdom that says ‘without labour nothing prospers’ [Sophocles].
We would like to inform you as well that our dedicated team operates on a daily basis and reachable via email, phone calls and text messages on our contact information on our website, “contact us” section; with a full access to emails, files and all the necessary documentary source.
Our law firm has the necessary tools of eclectic signature and document sharing to pursue all the undertaken projects and operations in progress.
We wish you, your families and your beloved ones our best wishes of good health and safety.
To keep you abreast of market developments, we will continue to send our flash updates and weekly newsletters to you regularly.
You can visit as well our website https://www.abdelly-chaary-northafrica.com/.
We also invite you to increase the level of communication with your relationship manager if you would find reassurance in this. Thank you for your continued support and trust during this turbulent time. Remember, we are always here for you, so please do not hesitate to get in touch should you need us.
Best Regards
Samir
