Client Files and the Environment

Working in collaboration with our clients, Fogarty Law Firm follows these environmental practices:

  • Our firm stationery, printing and copy paper is made from recycled materials;
  • We also make every effort to reduce paper consumption;
  • We encourage clients to communicate with us by email;
  • File documents such as application forms and written submissions are generated in digital format for client review and revision;
  • File documents are printed only when ready for signature and submission to the authorities;
  • Personal supporting documents such as birth certificates and diplomas are scanned and when printed this is only in the minimum number of copies necessary;
  • We use two-sided printing and copying whenever permitted;
  • Reduced paper consumption, printing and copying means less waste, less use of printing chemicals, less use of electricity;
  • By eliminating unnecessary bulk when preparing client files for submission, we are able to reduce the size and weight of the envelopes used to transport their application. Smaller and lighter envelopes require less energy for their transportation. The environment benefits. Clients benefit because courier expenses are minimized;
  • We make government applications on-line for certain procedures when it is possible to do so.
