Legal advice is advice or the giving of a formal opinion regarding issues pertaining to the law, usually by an attorney in exchange for a fee. Legal advice that is given without the exchange of a fee is usually considered pro bono. You can get legal advice from many sources. Not only could one seek the advice of an attorney, you can also find general information all over the internet, whether it be from legal websites, attorney's blogs or even social networking pages such as MySpace or Twitter, although some online sources are less reliable than others. There are several websites that offer this type of service. You can even find websites that will issue you free legal advice; however, it is advisable for you to obtain an attorney who specializes in that particular field to answer your questions, that way you know for sure that the advice you are receiving is accurate and applies to your specific situation. You can schedule a free consultation with an attorney and during the consultation you may ask questions that you have, resulting in free legal advice.
