Covid-19 (Coronavirus)
We are all in unprecedented times as the coronavirus pandemic evolves which is causing uncertainty for everyone. The firm is following the advice provided by Public Health England and, as such our offices in Kingsbridge and Plymouth will remain open.
We want to assure you that at Beers we are fully committed to ensuring the safety of our staff and clients, whilst minimising as much as possible the disruption to our work and client service at this very difficult time. Therefore to ensure that we keep everyone safe we will be introducing some changes to our client contact procedures.
The specific steps we will be taking are:-
• Client appointments in the office will be strictly by appointment only. There will be no availability for clients to come into the offices without prior appointment.
• Clients wishing to drop off documents may do so by putting them in our letterbox or can call into the office.
• Please note that from 8 August, the government guidance on face coverings has stated that members of the public will be required to wear a face covering when visiting premises providing professional, legal or financial services. If you are attending our offices, please put your mask/covering on prior to entering and wear it throughout your visit.
• Clients requesting an appointment will be offered a telephone/facetime/skype meeting in the first instance.
• All of our Law Clinics where we offer 15 minutes of free advice will be cancelled. However we will be providing clients a free 15 minute telephone consultation throughout the week.
• Clients can also e-mail info@beersllp.com for legal advice and we will respond to the e-mail within 72 hours.
• All our lawyers and key support staff have the technology to work remotely, at any time, whatever happens in the weeks and months ahead.
• We have put in place stringent measures with our staff and informed them of what they are to do in the event that they present or have contact with anyone with coronavirus symptoms.
• Our management team will review the Government guidelines on a daily basis and will keep our staff and clients updated with this ever changing situation.
It is likely that over the coming weeks and months things will become increasingly challenging but be rest assured we will remain here for you.
Please do not hesitate to contact the person who has conduct of your matter if you have any concerns regarding how this will affect your legal services with us.

What our clients say
- Fantastic! Thank you very much Helen. I think I can safely say you’ve been the most efficient, helpful and responsive Solicitors I have ever dealt with! We’ve already recommended you to relatives who are hoping to move from London when CV allows! Kind regards KW
- Dear Slade De Lacey – thank you very much for all of your help and advice, I really appreciate it! You helped me through a very difficult situation. Thanks again. – Employment advice
- Thank you very much asking me to take part in your Client Survey. I was recommended to use Beers by Mr. M. Hembrough and also by Mr. P. Housego both of whom I believe are known to Beers. I telephone Beers and had a very informative conversation with Mr. A. Bushall. He asked me for brief details of my claim and explained in detail the process and the likelihood of my claim being upheld and the time line involved which made me feel a lot more confident. This is an area of law that I am unfamiliar with and was very helpful. Within a few days I received in the post a letter of authorization and various other papers to be completed. I returned these duly signed and then in no time at all I was contacted by Mr. I. Huxham who retained conduct of my case until its conclusion. Mr. Huxham kept me advised on every mile stone that the case reached. He even talked me through what I could expect when I went to see the Consultant Surgeon and when it was time for my daughter and I to make a formal statement Mr. Huxham showed endless patience in explaining exactly what was required. The defendant was the Civil Service and their solicitors were Government Solicitors. Anything to do with the Civil Service is notoriously long winded and where possible the Ostrich policy is followed, but Mr. Huxham stuck with my case. He made applications to the court on my behalf as I was limited with the time frame. He kept me informed every step of the way and in language which I could understand. This made the whole and very lengthy process so much easier to understand. Even when I lost my nerve and thought it wasn’t worth carrying on Mr. Huxham spent a great deal of time very late in the day going over my case with me and reassuring me. Without Mr. Huxham’s diligence, perseverance and patience I am absolutely convinced we would not have had the positive outcome we had. Mr. Huxham is the epitome of the profession which he had chosen to make his own. I have no doubt that he is as giving of his time and knowledge to all of Beers clients which he represents. With all that said, I would not have the slightest hesitation in recommending Beers LLP to anyone for any legal matter. I wish Beers and Mr. Huxham every success in the future. Mary Anne Gugan
- Helen Tuck was amazing - professional. efficient and helpful - would recommend.
- I would like to thank you both (Helen and Sandra) for helping me though a difficult process and being quick to respond with information when I needed your help. I found your approach very calming and I like that we went thought things to alleviate any drama. I hope in the politest way I don't need your services again regarding divorce but if I find myself in such a situation again!! I will be sure to seek you out. I would definitely recommend you to others. Kind regards Mr Roberts
