WHAT IS FLORIDA CALL-A-LAW? |
| |
|
| |
Florida Call-A-Law is a collection of recorded messages on a variety of basic legal topics written by Florida attorneys. The tapes are two to three minutes long and are easy to understand. |
| |
|
| |
WHAT FLORIDA CALL-A-LAW IS NOT |
| |
Florida Call-A-Law cannot replace the legal advice of an attorney or answer specific legal questions. The tapes provide general legal information which does not apply to all legal problems. It is merely intended to help you identify a legal problem before seeking professional counsel. If you believe you need legal advice, call your attorney. If you do not have an attorney, call The Florida Bar Lawyer Referral Service at 1-800-342-8011 or the local lawyer referral service or legal aid office listed in the yellow pages of your telephone book. |
