DEADLY FORCE & THE LAW

“I’d rather be judged by 12 then carried by 6.” I don’t know who came up with this statement but the views represented by it are incredibly far off from where lawful self-defenders should be.

There are a lot of myths and rumors about how the law applies to self-defense. This course is specifically designed to educate students on what the law is and how to navigate the legal system should the need ever arise.
This Course is 8 – 9 hours long and is entirely classroom. No Live Fire.
Tuition is $200.00
Topics will include:

How to document your training so it’s admissible in court
When you can actually use Deadly Force
Physiological phenomenon involved in deadly force incidents
The aftermath of a violent incident
How to choose an Attorney
Navigating the court system
How laws are actually interpreted
Courtroom expectations

And Many More….
