Free telephone helpline – advice on legal matters concerning private life
Loimu members are entitled to receive advice on legal matters concerning private life from Eversheds attorneys / Law Firm Aika by telephone as a membership benefit.
What does the phone consultation cover?
The service provides advice on private legal matters. You can ask for guidance on issues such as inheritance and wills, prenuptial agreements, division of property, gifts, and responsibilities related to real estate or housing transactions.
Phone consultations cover matters that can be discussed and resolved over the phone without the need to review documents or emails. If your case cannot be resolved during the call, you can agree on further representation with the lawyer. The lawyer is happy to assist with all legal matters, but additional representation will be charged separately.Remember: seeking advice early can protect your rights and financial interests! Anticipating legal issues can help you avoid disputes and losses.
What is not included?
- Drafting of documents is not part of the service. According to professional legal ethics, lawyers cannot take responsibility for the accuracy or legality of documents drafted by the member, even if based on the advice provided.
- The service does not include cases already managed by another legal representative or cases the member is handling independently in court or with authorities.
- Questions related to employment relationships or work duties should be directed to the union.
- The service does not provide advice on business, investment, or trustee-related matters.
- It also excludes unemployment benefits, insurance, pensions, and other social security matters, as these typically require detailed review of written materials.
