STARTS IN:

Freedom Isn’t Insured. It’s Defended.

AOR is built for people who don’t cut corners on preparedness. Every benefit included in your fees is there because it holds up when it matters. The Achilles Heel Tactical team prepares you for the fight. We prepare you for what comes after.

Joining AOR does more than protect you. A portion of every client’s fees goes directly toward legal advocacy for 2nd Amendment rights and pro bono representation for responsible gun owners who couldn’t otherwise afford a defense. When you join, you’re securing your own freedom and standing behind everyone else who takes that responsibility seriously.

At Achilles Heel Tactical, we believe preparation extends far beyond learning how to shoot. Responsible firearms ownership requires deliberate preparations for the moral, tactical, and legal responsibilities that accompany carrying a firearm in defense of human life. Our team up with Attorneys On Retainer reflects our shared commitment to preparing responsibly armed citizens not only for the moment force becomes necessary, but for the responsibilities that come before it and the consequences that may follow.

The Difference

This Is Not Your Typical
Self-Defense Insurance

Most programs put an insurance company or third-party network between you and your defense. AOR puts a law firm there instead — the only one in the nation exclusively representing clients in self-defense cases.

Attorneys On Retainer

  • Attorney-client privilege the moment you become an Attorneys For Freedom (AFF) client
  • Coverage in all 50 states & D.C.
  • 24/7 emergency hotline to your attorney
  • Exclusively represents clients in self-defense cases
  • We cover what other programs routinely exclude

Other Self-Defense Programs

  • Your information may not be protected by attorney-client privilege
  • Coverage may not be available in all 50 states
  • Hotline may connect you to a call center or case manager first, not an attorney
  • Attorneys may handle many types of cases, not just self-defense
  • Exclusions may apply to illegal weapons, prohibited possessors, and more
