    Anyone use this service?
    I'm thinking the small weekly deduction of $8,is a good insurance policy.
    Any reviews welcome.
    Thanks.

    I use U.S. Legal Services. I believe I pay more than $8 though.. haven't needed it yet thankfully, but I have heard both good things and bad things about those type of services... be interested in hearing more about this as well..

    guess I've saved a lot of money.

    and yes, I've gotten a few tickets.

    Save your money, I been out here 9 years so I would have paid in over $3,700.
    No tickets yet, but I'm an OOIDA member, I think they can recommend lawyers too.

    The service provides attorney fees,so you don't need to take time off to attend court.
    Some folks here have gotten out of simple things like speeding tickets without any points to your license.
    let's face it,the court system is a huge revenue maker,and I prefer to prepay.
    Won't have to take time off to get to some far off revenuer town.
    Anyone know if I can write it off as a truck expense?:biggrin_25525:
