| Post subject: | Good Lawyers |
One of the things mentioned during my carry course, was to have the contact information (or have retained) a good lawyer. I have always sort of kept that in the back of my mind, but I haven't ever really found anyone (or firm) that advertises as knowledgeable about self defense cases. What are your thoughts on having a lawyer on speed-dial so to speak, and do you have anyone you would suggest. |

While there may be many good criminal defense lawyers, I have David Gross on speed dial. Betcha Joel could tell you why David is his lawyer of choice. |

Is there anyone else besides David Gross, I have seen him really lose his temper at the CCRN meeting. |

I used David back in '01, to force Mpls PD to renew my carry permit. He did just fine for me! |

That maybe the case, but anyone who loses his temper like my wife and I saw that meeting (and a few others as well), well I just can't trust my freedom to someone like that. Maybe he (David Gross) is the best lawyer in the state, I don't know, But it would be nice to have more that one lawyer to go to, especially if the one lawyer is someone you don't trust. |

A friend who's a bailbondsman recommends Craig Cascorano in Mpls. He has apparently done shooting defense in the past. Mike |

"good lawyers",,,,hmmm, sounds like "goldenhearted whores" or "honest politicians"; great in theory, however, reality rears it's ugly head... |

David's a friend, but that's not why he's the lawyer I'd call if I were in trouble -- it's because I think he's really good, and I trust him completely. That, of course, doesn't mean that you should. |

Just that fact that we have two listed that have defensive shooting experience, is huge. That isn't something I have been able to find in yellow pages ads. 
MagicAnimal- you may not get much disagreement regarding lawyers, but I consider it a necessary inconvience. Much like carrying 30oz of metal plus bullets on my hip. |

Quote: I have seen him really lose his temper at the CCRN meeting A couple things to consider: 1) One man's "temper" is another man's "passion for the subject." 2) Sometimes a deliberate show of "temper" is an effective way to influence people. I wasn't there, but is it beyond the realm of possibility that you saw a bit of "theater" from an experienced advocate?

I answered Andrew privately and I will no longer talk about the subject. |
