Following the devastating earthquake which hit Christchurch at 12.51 pm on February 22, 2011 the town office of Harmans has closed and the firm has been fortunate to secure additional space in the building which houses its Papanui branch office at 485 Papanui Road. In several organised visits into the town offices we have managed to extract all of our client Wills and Deeds which are now stored in a secure location outside of the CBD. The partners of Harmans are pleased to be fully operational and available to cater for your every legal need.
We are offering an initial half hour consultation free of charge to anyone requiring legal advice on any issue arising as a result of the earthquakes.
