To start: I am not a lawyer. I do not play an attorney on TV, and I did not sleep at a Holiday Inn Express last night. I am just an average woman who thinks that everyone should be able to have access to legal information.
The law was never intended to be for lawyers, rather it was supposed to be easy and understandable so that the average citizen could follow it. The average citizen should be able to apply common sense to the law and avoid problems. But, that's not always the case is it?
Sometimes we see citizens run afoul of the law for no reason other than ignorance. While ignorance is no excuse for violating the law in traditional views, with all of the huge laws that have been passed in recent years, how likely is it that you might violate an obscure law that no one even knows about?
That is what I would like to help prevent by providing resources for you to learn more about your legal situation. I do not offer legal advice, and like I said, I'm not an attorney. But if I can point people to good information elsewhere, I feel like I am doing something worthwhile.
