Is there an efficient way for me to become aware of the community's inquiries about legal matters? I see that one can select from the Category drop-down list when creating a post, but I don't see how it applies when searching or whether it is fit for this question.
About an hour ago I addressed a post from December of last year regarding Luxembourg labor law. I would have addressed it shortly after the inquiry was posted, but I seldom login here, Expat newsletter did not list that post until today's email, and going through each and every forum of Expat.com on a regular basis would be impractical.
I'm thinking that functionality that classifies posts by subject-matter would streamline this issue. In the alternative, I'm open to being notified should someone wish to bring to my attention a post. If I happen to have attained expertise in that field of law, I'll be happy to contribute.
I need to make three remarks:
- Whenever possible, please create a post instead of just sending me a private message. This is because I would prefer that also others benefit from the effort and expertise I apply when addressing an inquiry.
- I am not a lawyer. This implies that no attorney-client relationship whatsoever can ensue from our communications. In particular, this implies that nothing that we discuss here or in private would be protected by the attorney-client privilege (I actually posit that the attorney-client privilege ought to be abolished in every legal system because it is perverse and outdated, but that's another topic). I only intend to give you a starting point --with verifiable sources, if need be-- in making sense of the legal issue you are experiencing. And I'm doing this for free.
- I am not knowledgeable about visa/residency/citizenship issues. I understand this comprises a significant portion of posts, but it is just not interesting enough for me to do the research I'm open to devote to other issues.
Thanks.
