I recently found this but I have no idea if they are reputable. Has anyone dealt with them?

It's access to training at reduced rates, an expert either free or reduced cost, and a $5,000 grant for defense costs to get an attorney on the job from the outset in the event you light someone up.

That's a thumbnail sketch.

OH, and you get the ever lovable me if you are in Connecticut...

MitchellCT ... thanks for the very direct and straightforward posts in this thread. You have obviously ruffled some feathers but anyone offended needs to get over it and understand what you are trying to advise.

It amazes me the number of people who refuse to take the advice of counsel and just shut up. There is a time and a place for making your statements and that time is ONLY after you have secured an attorney and do as he instructs.

Can anything you say before you're read your rights be admissible in court?

Do you have any sources for this $100k amount? I have been doing a bunch of research lately on this topic and I can't find anything close to this number. I am really curious as I am trying to formulate and present a fact based study to the forum. Your backup to the $100k would be helpful. Thanks.

Just a thought about this... I try to spend time periodically on a trainer/simulator (in this case a rangemaster with ex LEO at the controls to pull my chain). One of the scenarios he ran me thru was a carjacking, first perp I got nice and clean, as I finished my scan and started uncoupling a second perp (i thought) jumped me with a lfirearm pointed directly at me. I popped him promptly, as with a very short decision window and the information at hand combined with my state from the first shooting it sure looked like a firearm. A As he was falling a little bell was going off in my head that something did not seem quite right. A re run showed it to be upon closer exaination (in front of my buddies of course) to be a cell phone. ...and that my friends is how you learn.

If you really want to get some experience short of the real thing, go get some hours on simulators. fwiw- The experience always leaves me drained and very pensive as nothing IMO is black and white.

Now, if you could only proceed to court (simulator) !

This is only a correct statement to the extent of a CIVIL case. You are on your own for the criminal defense.

Rob P ... if you or anyone else knows of an umbrella policy covering you for the criminal defense please let me know. I realize there are a handful of CCW policies out there for the criminal component but they are not "umbrella" policies. I am working up a case study right now so anyone please correct me if my research so far is flawed.

So the insurance would be pointless in Texas?

Find a local law school and ask to sit in on a mock trial. Also, check out 'moot court' teams from the law school, and see when they are doing something that interests you.
