Peace Destee Fam!
Thank you Bro Goodman for starting this very important and much needed post!
We'll have to ring some alarms to get our Black Lawyers to speak up! But they will.
For now, we can look into this material.
www.freeadvice.com has some good tips, especially when dealing with criminal law.
http://criminal-law.freeadvice.com/
Then we have these books you can look up on google/books or Amazon that are really helpful.
-Law 101: Everything You Need to Know about the American Legal System
-Criminal Law Handbook: Know Your Rights, Survive the System
Now the Brotha I would really like us to get in on this forum is
Mr. John V. Elmore, Esq
He's the author of the book:
Fighting for you life - the African American criminal justice survival guide.
I don't have the authority to get him here, but this is his Email address, maybe he can drop us a paragraph of two as quick legal tips.
