As an elder law, special needs, and estate planning firm, our practice is dedicated to serving our most vulnerable citizens.
We have heard from many people who want to talk to us about creating a will, trust, power of attorney, healthcare directive, etc. - just in case - and we are here to help anyone who has not taken steps to protect their loved ones.
During these uncertain times of the Covid-19 pandemic, we continue to follow the guidance of the State of California and Sacramento Country to keep our staff and clients safe. We also take all available steps to remain accessible to our clients, and we are here to serve and support you through this unusual situation, while your health, safety, and well-being are our top priority.
Please see below for answers to some frequently asked questions, and feel free to contact us any time by calling our office at 916-241-9661 or emailing us at info@chubblawfirm.com for assistance with your legal matter.
Is your office currently open during normal business hours?
Yes, we are open Monday through Thursday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., although most meetings continue to be held virtually.
What precautions are you taking for in-person meetings?
We are taking a number of precautions to help ensure the safety of both our staff and clients. We follow California Department of Public Health guidance and requirements, and as of March 1, 2022, masks will no longer be required (except in certain settings), but they will still be recommended. We want to continue to respect people’s preferences, and in our office, if you prefer that our staff members wear masks during our meetings with you, please let us know and we will respect your wishes.
We also schedule additional time between client meetings to allow for sanitization of the conference room and waiting area, and allow one client in the office at a time. We practice social distancing and provide hand sanitizer for everyone to use.
How can I contact you? How can I get updates regarding the status of my case or legal matter?
Please call our office at 916-241-9661. If we do not answer, please leave a message and we will return your call as soon as possible. You may also email us at info@chubblawfirm.com.
What video chat platforms do you offer for clients?
We offer Zoom, FaceTime, and GoogleMeet options for virtual meetings.
Are you accepting new clients?
Yes, absolutely!
Are courts still open in my area? Will my court date be rescheduled?
Some of the courts in our area continue to be closed to the public, including Sacramento County, which continues to hold hearings via video conference. El Dorado County and Placer County have limited public access and are holding hearings both in person and via video conference.
Please feel free to contact us with any questions you may have, and we invite you to visit the links below for WHO, CDC, state, and local updates regarding public health orders, court operations, and other information.
