Hello,

I'm looking for information on the labor board, and the numbers for EFL lawyers. Never had to do this before, so anyone with information please let me know.

EFL lawyer = not going to happen.
Labor lawyer = not worth your time (this isn't the litigious States of America).

Ministry of employment and labor:

MOEL contact information:

or call them at: 1350

Got a leaflet here that says the Seoul bar association offer free legal advice to foreign workers on a Monday from 10-12 and 2-5. Tel 02 3476 8080. Don't know if they still do it, there's no date on the leaflet.

And not everyone on this forum is an Anti-American Canadian, or where ever you are from.

Not sweating my balls off hiding a tent in the sands of Arabia being the biggest bully on the block ... that's for sure.

And everyone else on the planet doesn't run for a lawyer to solve their problems; ONLY in the litigious states (where they would rather duke it out than work it out).

No. The rest of them are Americans.

I know an EFL lawyer. He charges $500 an hour, but he's won all of his high profile cases.
