Coronavirus/COVID-19 Update from Scher Group, PLLC

March 16, 2020

You have probably received several emails in the last few days from companies and organizations offering details of their response to COVID-19 and the coronavirus. Here is what Scher Group is doing to keep delivering the service our clients expect.
If you need to discuss business financial contingency plans, cash preservation strategies, or other strategic planning issues please do not hesitate to give us a call.

OUR PRIORITY

Our first priority is to ensure the health and safety of our clients, team members and their families. We are here to help you navigate uncertain times, whether you are affected by the virus directly or through the volatility of the financial markets. We are closely monitoring daily developments and have a detailed plan to ensure we can continue providing critical services.

PROACTIVE POLICIES

Our generous paid-time off policies and guidance for our team members ensure that they stay home if they are sick, at risk due to travel or have been exposed to illness.
We are restricting non-essential team member business travel to help prevent exposure.
Our office will be closed to all outside visitors from March 16 through March 31. We will evaluate when to reopen the office at the end of March. All meetings can be held via Zoom web conference or via telephone.
We are highly encouraging all submission of documents including tax documents be submitted via our online portal: https://scher.liscio.me/
Any paper documents, deliveries, mail, etc. from outside the office will be quarantined for 3 days before being handled by our staff.
We are prepared for as many team members to work from home as needed so we can continue supporting critical services.
Our office is prepared with the supplies we need including hand sanitizer, disinfectant and gloves.

GOING FORWARD
We know how much you depend on us, and we are committed to providing the service you expect from us. Our response plan starts with the steps above and progresses to more serious measures we can consider if this situation escalates, such as modifying office schedules.

As an extra precaution, we are encouraging everyone on our team to use Zoom meetings. Please consider using electronic submission of information and web meetings during this time. This is a good general practice during any cold and flu season. Some other general practices are:

Wash your hands frequently or use hand sanitizer while out running errands.
Cover your nose and mouth when you cough or sneeze and keep your distance from people who are coughing or sneezing.
Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth.
If you are sick, avoid going out but seek medical care.
