Knife Rights, America’s foremost advocacy organization for knife owners, is proud to team up with U.S. LawShield which offers legal defense protection for those who have a justified self-defense incident regardless of the legal weapon used; knife, gun, club, or any other*.
What if you used your knife for self-defense instead of, or back-up to, a firearm? What if a knife was the only legal choice available to carry for self-defense? What if your spouse or child grabbed a knife off the kitchen counter, or a gun, to defend against an armed intruder? Or, what if you are arrested for carrying a perfectly legal knife? U.S. LawShield provides legal defense for self-defense and legal carry.
I doubt anyone reading this is heading out the door with their EDC knife looking for the opportunity to use it in self-defense. Still, that sometimes happens; we know because we get the calls and emails that result. What happens afterwards has long been a serious concern for us. Now, with U.S. LawShield, we finally have an answer, at least if you think ahead and are proactive.
If you were forced to protect yourself or your family from an assault, break-in or other illegal act, could you afford to defend yourself in court against inappropriate, perhaps even politically motivated, criminal charges or a civil lawsuit? Viewing the violence playing out on the news every day, that’s a question more and more folks are asking themselves. With some jurisdictions viewing your perfectly legal EDC knife as a weapon, not a tool, what would you do if arrested on a weapons charge? These are serious concerns.
I have all too often heard, “I never thought this could happen to me.” I know, I know…this sort of thing only happens to “the other guy” and you are too smart and careful to get caught up in something of this nature. Just bear in mind, you are “the other guy” to everyone else.
If you are arrested on a weapons violation or if law enforcement shows up after a violent encounter, odds are they will treat you as a criminal. Having a lawyer at your beck and call, no matter the time or day, is invaluable in such circumstances and can often de-escalate the situation.
Just imagine finding yourself in a situation where you are telling an officer, “I want to speak to an attorney,” with no clue even how to find that attorney, hopefully competent, that you desperately need to speak to? For a modest monthly sum, U.S. Law Shield solves that problem and ensures you don’t have to risk bankruptcy to be represented by an experienced criminal defense lawyer. If you need to speak to an attorney, you’ll have a membership card with a U.S. LawShield Independent Program Attorney to talk to right then when needed the most, any time, any day, 24/7/365
And, just a reminder, if you haven’t already done so, review “If Stopped or Arrested.” A summary is on the back of your Knife Rights membership card. But, that advice doesn’t pay for your attorney, U.S. LawShield does.
When your life or that of loved ones is on the line or you are facing a weapons charge, the last thing you should have to worry about is the potentially ruinous legal aftermath. Regardless of the legal weapon used or carried, U.S. LawShield provides you and your family with essential coverage, peace of mind, and a simple-to-understand plan that’s very affordable.
