The department works with a professional team from across a range of legal fields, and is familiar with the Halakhic [Translator’s Note: Jewish law – g.m.], linguistic, and environmental demands suitable and relevant to the sector, to provide the best service that respects the community’s values, way of life, and activities, in its multifaceted hues.
