O
ur office consists of Judi Piccolo, Notary Public extraordinaire; Bill Ramsey, bookkeeper and Judi’s husband; Zoë Brunchmann and Cheri Shannon, senior legal assistants; Sandi Hurlburt, junior legal assistant; and Catheigh Annely, secretary. The office is located in The Hacienda, a lovely part of the old downtown Langley City. The office is very spacious. Judi has decorated it with interesting art pieces and collectibles. Each staff member has a large and comfortable work area and the freedom to decorate with family photos and pictures and to listen to music. The office environment promotes collaboration and brainstorming among the employees, allowing them to perform to the best of their abilities. Our very busy office has many demands but there always seems to be laughter at some point of each day and we make time to check in with each other about how we are doing and what is going on in our lives. Judi absolutely loves the respect we have for each other, our great work ethics, and our good senses of humour.

Three years ago I came to work for this most wonderful lady. Because of Judi’s compassion and love for people and family, she took me under her wing. I was barely able to turn on a computer; she gave me a new start! From the exceptional skills and endless hours of mentoring from Zoë, Catheigh, and Cheri, I now possess skills I never thought possible. We are all committed to a high standard of client care and vision for the future of this outstanding firm. Sandi Hurlburt Our Notary is the reason our team works so well. She has created an environment that is a positive place to spend our working days. Judi shows kindness and respect to each of us and in turn we treat her and each other the same way. Ours is a very busy office with many demands. We follow the example of our Notary; she is why she has such a hardworking and dedicated team by her side. Zoë Brunchmann Judi herself is kind, thoughtful, fairminded, encouraging, and compassionate. Cheri and Zoë have so well expressed my sentiments. Judi truly is the secret to why our team works so well. Catheigh Annely Judi is very committed to giving her clients the best service for their money. Each staff member is very proficient in his or her respective duties and we work well together to achieve the same goals. Bill Ramsey What I absolutely love about all my staff is that we respect each other, we have great work ethics and a good sense of humour, and nobody gets moody! My staff works together as a team. When they have a suggestion to improve the office, they get their heads together and come up with a proposal without interrupting me in my office. I get to see the end result and to spend more quality time with my clients. I am so lucky to have such good people around me! Judi Volume 26 Number 1 Spring 2017
