Why a Virtual Office?
Attorney Knapp works out of virtual office, which gives him the ability to work on your case any where at any time!
The downside to not having traditional office space in a brick and mortar building is that there are no drop-in office hours. The benefits, however, outweigh that one drawback and include:
- Flexibility in meeting location and time, including consultations in the privacy of your own home or during your lunch break;
- Ability to handle matters in various geographic locations, with little to no travel costs;
- More ways to engage and communicate, including phone, text message, video conferencing, e-mail, and in-person;
- Convience;
- Environmentally friendly;
- Most of all, expense! Without the overhead costs of extra staff, office space rental, utilities, office furniture, equipment and upkeep, and commute/travel, the savings can be passed directly on to you!
