Warp. You might want to look at my post (#19) and respond to that, instead of schilling for USCCA.
I dropped your organization when they couldn't even give me correct information on their network of attorneys. When I called to drop my subscription, I got an ass chewing about how I didn't know what I was talking about. She said they don't let you interview or talk to any of the attorneys that they use. Sorry, but I want a competent attorney that is not a recent law school grad associate. What's the fear about? Last thing I need is someone that is picked out of the hat.
I went with AOR (Attorneys on Retainer) due to extensive phone interviews with REAL attorneys. I asked a lot of questions, and they ask a lot of you also. It just felt more professional. They also have live streaming for audience questions and updates. You can also select your attorney if it something that is a non-chargeable event. It doesn't have to be gun related, but there is a fee schedule for non-chargeable events and you can select the attorney that you want. For chargeable events, like self defense shooting, expenses are covered and there should not be any out of pocket expenses. Bail is limited to 50K, if I recall.
They go out of their way to make sure that you are fully aware of the fees, definitions of what is covered and not covered, and services offered. Carefully read all the documents that you are signing and watch the videos. It is the only way, along with questions and phone calls, to be sure of exactly what you are getting BEFORE you sign on the dotted line.
And NO, I am not an employee of AOR. Just trying to be fair to both of these organizations thru my experiences.
If you, God forbid, have a self defense incident, and the situation warrants an attorney, it would be the Delta Defense Critical Response Team reaching out to the attorney of your choice (could be from the network, could not). This is a different scenario than cold calling them yourself. You can talk to or interview any attorney you want, that also wants to, but don't be surprised when good attorneys are busy and don't have time to shoot the breeze with someone that is, probably and hopefully, extremely unlikely to ever use them for what is being asked about.
USCCA benefits don't have to be from a 'gun related' self defense incident necessarily either BTW. There are in fact AAR's of actual members who got those benefits without using a firearm.
Recent law school grad associate? The CRT noted attorneys on the USCCA list have minimum requirements including time/experience, these aren't inexperienced recent grads. But, you can also pick your own attorney if you don't want to use an attorney who is in the network (which are in all 50 states and DC)
I agree, carefully reading all documents is a very important thing. THat's kind of why I piped up...because people are saying a lot of things that are blatantly false and a careful reading and understanding of the documents as a USCCA member would clearly demonstrate that those things are false.
I responded to this post because you asked me something directly about a previous post I don't want to ignore that, but, I do want to step back as stated above since I'm "just a guy" (who happens to be a Delta Defense employee) in this context. I of course won't speak at all about any other entity in the marketplace because that would not IMO be appropriate.
The ultimate source of truth here is still to call or chat (via the uscca website) a Delta Defense (aka 'USCCA') employee anytime 24/7 with any questions.
I understand you have already, at least for now, made up your mind and gone elsewhere. Not trying to change your mind, you did your due diligence and made a choice based on research, I wish more people would actually reach out to everyone they were considering like that vs simply reading things online and making up their mind based on that (in many things in life, not just this, generally speaking...even guns/gear, rent or buy or try things don't just watch some YouTuber and then buy what they push because it's what they push...etc)
