Law Update: Legal advice is just a call away

TWO legal telephone helplines have been opened by the City firm D Freeman. The services - employment clientline and property clientline - are intended for professional and executive clients who need a second opinion or on-the-spot help. Subscribers will pay a quarterly fee. The employment service will cover references and recruitment, disciplinary procedures, business transfers, redundancies and discrimination. The property helpline will offer advice on property insolvency and commercial leases.
