idodishez Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) It's always been suggested as a good idea. But lately with more and more stories surfacing of 2A violations, unwarranted searches and seizures, etc it seems to be more pressing now. (The story of NJ family getting a house visit by law enforcement "demanding" they see his safe, over a FB post is one of many examples)So, anyone have an attorney they recommend to keep on speed dial in the Buckeye state? Is NRA a place to consider here? Other places to look?NoBama 2012 Edited March 25, 2013 by idodishez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

idodishez Posted March 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 http://www.ohiogunlawguide.com/About-KenExactly what I was looking for. Assuming he answers calls in the middle of the night while you have popo at your house. Do you use him? Guessing he's not cheap from his résumé NoBama 2012 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jblosser Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 if i need to use him, i will.like most anything else, you get what you pay for, and if you're up on gun charges i wouldn't be shopping for the cheapest counselor.he's also an ffl, but since Dale and D-E came along, I don't use him for that any longer.

redkow97 Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Some of you seem to have misconceptions about how the legal system works. Know your rights, and assert them politely to police, but if they are insistent, a lawyer isn't going to show up at your house and prevent the cops from performing an illegal search. A lawyer's job is merely to ensure that any evidence from said illegal search is rightly suppressed in court, and not used against you. Then you would have the option of suing the police department for damages in cases where there is a clear public policy interest to send the message that such behavior from officers will not be tolerated. That is why police get the benefit o the doubt on real mistakes. Where is the deterrent value in penalizing a legitimate mistake? There is none. So like I said, know your rights, and assert them politely, but don't tack legitimate disorderly conduct or resisting arrest charges to an otherwise bogus search and seizure premise.

Just would be helpful to have someone tell me yes, you should do that. Or no, you shouldn't do that. Or even after the fact, be it a traffic stop, MWAG call (I came VERY close to having one of those recently, and probably would have if I had stuck around), etc. Bottom line an attorney well versed in gun rights.

Right or wrong? Don't know, don't care. You, like myself, don't know the rest of the story and probably never will.
