In the common law, legal advice is the giving of a formal opinion regarding the substance or procedure of the law by an officer of the court (such as solicitor or barrister), ordinarily in exchange for financial or other tangible compensation. Advice given without remuneration is normally referred to as being pro bono publico (in the public good), or colloquially, pro bono. Legal advice is distinguished from legal information which is the reiteration of legal fact. Legal information can be conveyed by a parking meter, sign or by other forms of notice such as a warning by a law enforcement officer. Printed legal materials, such as directions and how-to manuals, are generally not considered legal advice. Accordingly, directions on how to fill in a motion form and other court documents do not constitute legal advice. On the other hand, application of legal rules and principles to a specific set of facts is almost always held to constitute legal advice by the courts. Online Legal AdviceWith the advent of the internet, many services have been established to provide individuals the power to conduct their own legal research or prepare their own legal documents. In addition, some companies have taken it a step further by offering answers to legal questions directly through their web services. From Wikipedia under the

Q. A few weeks ago, I submitted a credit application online at a local dealerships website. I filled it in completely. I waited to hear from the dealer, yes or no on financing. They contacted me and told me I had to come to the dealership. They would not say yes or no to financing, and I have not received a notice of denial by mail. I don't think they even ran a credit check. Is it legal for them to collect all my personal information, and then not use it for the intended purpose?
