The Coronavirus, officially COVID-19, has become a global health emergency. One of the measures Hoffman Brown Company is taking to keep our clients and Teammates safe is designing a completely virtual work environment. For the foreseeable future, our colleagues will be conducting business virtually to avoid any disruption in our ability to serve you. These measures are based on the CDC’s guidance and will evolve with the situation. Please know that we are fully functional, available and look forward to be of service.
