Legal services in Sri Lanka

Priscilla

Hello,

Legal services can be a headache when you don't have the relevant and necessary information, especially upon moving to a new country. Please share some tips regarding legal services in Sri Lanka.

What types of legal services might an expat need in Sri Lanka?

Are legal services easily accessible?

What are the best ways to go about finding a professional for your legal needs in Sri Lanka? (e.g. online, yellow pages, word of mouth)?

What are the most affordable options for legal services (private, public, etc.)? Is there a range regarding fees?

Thank you for sharing your experience.

Priscilla
