Some of these contracts promise to provide you a lawyer they pick, others provide payment for a lawyer you pick up to the limits of the policy. Some pay as you go, others only offer reimbursement after you have paid. Remembering the words of a CHL instructor and attorney who also happens to be one of the founders of this forum, he said something like this, “I wouldn’t want an attorney defending me who’s retainer was less than $30,000”. Not usually having $30,000 in loose change handy, I am enrolled with a company that offers up to $250,000 criminal defense for the attorney of your choice and they pay the attorney directly rather than reimbursing you later and $50000 in up front bail bond payment.

Read the fine print and do your research.
