How it works

From contact to support in seconds.

Attorney Shield puts a licensed attorney legal first responder on your screen the moment law enforcement initiates contact — pulled over, approached on the street, or contacted at home. Here's exactly how it works, from setup to resolution.

Before you ever need it

Two minutes of setup. A lifetime of readiness.

Everything happens before the encounter — so when it counts, you're one tap away.

01

Download & join

Get the app on iOS or Android. Enrollment takes basic contact details, your state of residency, and payment — that's it.

02

Load your Digital Glovebox

Store copies of your ID, insurance, and key documents securely in the app — everything in one place when you need it.

03

Add your family

On a Family Plan, add sub-accounts in seconds from Plan Detail. Coverage follows them anywhere; billing stays with you.

04

Try it free for 7 days

Explore the app and upload your documents on a 7-day limited trial. If you need to connect with an attorney, your membership activates instantly.

The moment it happens

Three steps. No phone trees. No waiting rooms.

Use the app the moment law enforcement initiates contact — here's what those first sixty seconds look like.

STEP 01

Choose the incident. Tap the Attorney Button.

Open the app, select the type of law enforcement contact you’re facing, and tap the Attorney Button to connect with a licensed attorney. No scrambling, no searching for a number — the button is built for a moment when seconds matter and hands shake.

Common questions

Still wondering how it works?

When exactly should I open the app?

The moment law enforcement initiates contact, whether you're being pulled over, approached on the street, or contacted at your residence.

Can the attorney guarantee a specific outcome?

No service can guarantee the actions of others. What you get is a Legal First Responder working to de-escalate, assert your rights, and ensure proper protocol — with a recording that puts you in the best position for whatever follows.

What situations is Attorney Shield used for?

Think of us as your Legal First Responder for any law enforcement-initiated contact: traffic stops, auto accidents, being detained for investigation, and more. The mission is a de-escalated environment that keeps the encounter safe and professional for everyone involved.
