Verification of identity during COVID-19

Estates & EPOA, General, Property, Wills
This week in Keeping it Legal, we want to discuss formal identification (ID) requirements in the time of COVID-19. 

For many legal processes, such as writing your Will or purchasing a property, there is a verification of identity process that must be followed, usually requiring your lawyer to physically view two forms of your photo identification. Your ability to provide ID may be impacted if you are under self-imposed or government mandated quarantine and there are ways that the legal profession is adapting, including the use of drive-through verification of identity stations and digital technology. Be prepared to supply your ID in new ways during this time.

We’ve had to adapt in other ways to provide the service and support you expect from us: 

  • We’re offering all services from both Springfield and Ipswich offices so that we are as accessible as possible.
  • We are limiting face-to-face contact and are conducting appointments via digital methods where we can.
  • We’ve taken our services mobile and can travel to you to deliver services such as the execution of documents.

Contact our friendly team to find out more. We want to assure our community that we are open and ready to help you during COVID-19.

Testimonials

Gerard, I just wanted to thank you and your staff for all the work you did for us in the finalisation of Mum’s estate, the sale of her house, her villa and the unit. In what was a very stressful time, I always felt confident that you had everything under control. Each time I rang or emailed, your quick responses put my mind at ease. Thanks for everything.

Wendy Ariel, Client

Ellie, thank you so much for your amazing support. Al and I were very impressed by your professionalism and successful outcome. We will be sure to contact you again in the future and will also recommend you to friends and family.

Jo and Al, Client

I am the executor for a family member's deceased estate and living interstate. Gerard and Laurisa have been outstanding with their knowledge, professionalism and communication. I work with conveyancers on a daily basis and experience good and the bad from the industry. Walker Pender are first class and highly recommend their services.

Brendon Fredericks, Client

A friendly, knowledgeable firm with staff who go above and beyond to ensure your needs are accommodated in a professional manner. Strongly recommend.

Nat Webb, Client

We received fantastic service from Gerard and his team in dealing with an early acquisition issue and subsequent sale and purchase of property. Gerard and Tiffany were efficient, friendly and best of all, reasonably priced. Could not be happier. Walker Pender are first class, I would recommend them without hesitation.
