I think it has been about 10 years since a CHL holder was prosecuted for a defensive shooting in Texas.

You need to find out exactly what they are providing. If it covers your defense from arrest through the U.S. Supreme Court, it's a very good deal.

If it is simply pre-paid legal service, maybe not.

You also have to find out who would be defending you.

I would like to know in great detail what services they provide and who would provide them.

I once had a prepaid legal service as part of my employee benefits. I had to use them for a routine civil matter. They did OK, but the lawyer was a very young guy who obviously had just passed his bar exam.

I wouldn't want that in a criminal case.

OK. I didn't notice that.

That's a possibility, but the dues are $20 a year, not $120.

I ran into them at the NRA convention in 2004. I honestly couldn't figure out what they were planning to do that the TSRA couldn't do.
