Seoul global Center will be changing the way it offers legal counseling from next year.
Those seeking advice will need to consult a multilingual counselor to assess their needs. The counselor will then book a session with a legal adviser, who will review the consultee’s situation before the session.
Various languages are supported for the initial consultation, including English, Russian and several Asian languages, and the consultation can be made in person or by phone or email.
The center said it had introduced the new system to address complaints about long waiting times for legal consultations.
Seoul Global Center offers legal advice on labor and general legal issues from Monday to Friday from 2-5 p.m. and on real estate issues on Fridays at the same time. Sessions last 30 minutes.
