This law firm could easily defend several CHL involved shootings every year with that amount. So why wouldn't it work? Unless this particular law firm is full of thieves, this concept is great. I say again, "How can I possibly go wrong"? It beats the heck out of not having anyone to talk to. If I'm sitting at the house with the whole day available to conduct a lawyer search and it still takes several days to find a decent one, how hard will it be if I'm sitting in jail and entitled to minimal phone calls, if any? It's not that we, individually, are going to pay $120 for great service. We, collectively, are paying millions for the unfortunate few to have great representation.

I would appreciate an intelligent response to these questions please. I do not have all the answers, but i would like to hear alternatives for someone who isn't independently wealthy or who doesn't have family or friends who are lawyers (thank God). I am not a salesperson for [Pre-paid legal service] or any other Law Firm. I am, however, very interested in maintaining my personal liberties and freedom, even if it costs me $10.95/mo., that's all.
