I found a guy a couple of blocks away from me in downtown Dallas. His admin says his retainer sounds to be about 2500 or so.

Sorry, but that's like saying that buying insurance means that you're planning to have an accident.

Some people have an attorney on retainer. That typically costs a couple grand. Some just have a lawyer's card in your wallet. Some just hope they stay lucky.

Can someone expect an attorney to post a felony attorney bond for a potential client they have no previous experience or relationship with?

I agree that some prosecutor might find that keeping your attorney on retainer makes you trigger happy.

(And why spend money now for something you will likely never need? Wait until something actually happens to spend all your money.)

Does anyone have an attorney "On Retainer" in case of an arrest pertaining to carrying/usage to include bail/magistrate hearings and the like? Wise idea?
