Legal Information Guidelines Introduced by the Law Society of Saskatchewan

The guidelines address:
- What credible legal information is
- Examples of types of legal information,
- How to assist a member of the public locate credible legal information, and
- How to assist a member of the public utilize legal information.
This tool identifies how legal information providers can assist the public with their information needs. For the public, the guidelines outline what to look for when deciding on which provider to use and how a legal information provider can help.
