Dial-A-Law expands service to include audio scriptsDial-A-Law isn't just a phone service anymore. This free library of plain-language legal information is now also available in digital audio format on the Canadian Bar Association, BC Branch website. People can listen (in English) via their computer or by downloading the audio to an mp3 player. Of course you can still dial up the scripts (in English and Mandarin Chinese ) at 604-687-4680 in the Lower Mainland or 1-800-565-5297 in the rest of BC, or read the scripts online in English (choose from topics listed on the left side of the screen), Chinese (simplified), or Punjabi. With more than 127 legal topics to choose from, the Dial-A-Law service is a convenient and easy way for the public to learn about the law and their rights as residents of British Columbia. |
