LEGAL HOTLINE: (717) 703-3080

One of the PNA's most popular services is the free Legal Hotline. PNA members may call the hotline with any legal questions.

PNA attorneys routinely provide members with advice on HIPAA, open records, the state Sunshine Act, use of independent contractors, libel, telemarketing, copyrights, the Pennsylvania Shield Law and legal advertising. Many reporters from PNA member newspapers rely on PNA's attorneys for expert quotes on stories involving legal issues.

PNA's Headlines & Deadlines electronic newsletter includes answers to legal questions in a "From the Hotline" column. Click here to browse the archive of legal questions and answers.

You may also want to search for information by topic using the PNA Legal Handbook.

Members may also contact PNA's General Counsel Teri Henning or Media Law Counsel Melissa Melewsky directly via e-mail.
