China's Ministry of Justice has offered free legal advice to individuals and enterprises via hotlines and websites amid the COVID-19 outbreak, said a ministry official Wednesday.

As of Monday, the 12348.gov.cn had received a total of 4,195 inquiries for epidemic-related legal advice at its ministerial and provincial-level platforms, mainly covering contract disputes, consumer rights and social security, said Xiong Xuanguo, vice justice minister, at a press conference.

In addition, the ministry has stepped up efforts to popularize laws by opening social media platforms, printing manuals, releasing typical cases of behaviors violating laws and regulations, among other moves, Xiong said.
