Hwaseong City Launches Free Legal Consultation Service with Prior Reservation System

Hwaseong City announced on the 26th that it will operate a free legal consultation service starting in March for residents and businesses with addresses in Hwaseong City.

The free legal consultation service will be held on the second Wednesday of each month at the Citizens' Free Legal Consultation Room on the 4th floor of Hwaseong City Hall, and on the fourth Wednesday at the Eastern Branch Office, operating twice monthly from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. on a prior reservation basis. Applications can be submitted by phone (031-369-2053) or by visiting the Planning and Budget Division of City Hall or the administrative office of the relevant eup, myeon, or dong.

The consultation service provides legal consultations on civil, criminal, and family law matters to resolve difficult legal issues in daily life, as well as legal consultations regarding small and medium-sized enterprise operations and startup legal support consultations. However, services such as document preparation for litigation proceedings and other legal procedure representation are excluded from consultation services.

Kim Don-gyeom, Director of the Planning and Budget Division of Hwaseong City, stated that "through the operation of the free legal consultation service, we expect to provide quality legal services to residents and small and medium-sized enterprises that lack time and economic resources but require legal consultation."
