Every Program You've Compared, on One Stage.

The Great 2A Insurance Town Hall · Veterans Building · Petaluma, CA · October 17 · 1 PM PT

STARTS IN:

On Saturday, October 17, AOR joins the major firearm legal protection programs for a live, unscripted town hall. You ask the questions and the panel will answer.

Come in person or watch from anywhere. Either way, bring your hardest question.

If you’re coming to Petaluma and you’re an AOR member, stop by our booth! The first 10 members to visit get a $25 gift card to the AOR merch store.

The Event

Not a Sales Pitch. A Live Q&A.

Most people compare these programs alone, reading membership agreements and guessing what happens when something actually goes wrong. The Great 2A Insurance Town Hall puts the people who can answer for it in the same room.

  • The audience runs it. You ask, they answer.
  • You get to push back. Follow-ups are the whole point.

On the Panel

Who’s Taking Questions

  • Attorneys On Retainer
  • CCW Safe
  • Right To Bear Association
  • Firearms Legal Protection
  • Delta Defense
  • Legal Shield
  • Lonestar

In person? Every organization will have a booth in the lobby. Find the AOR team there before and after the panel.

Why AOR Is There

The Event Says “Insurance.” We Aren’t.

AOR is 100% backed by the Attorneys For Freedom Law Firm. You’re a client from the day you enroll, with attorney-client privilege and a direct line to an attorney. Not a policyholder waiting on approval.

That difference is easy to miss on a comparison chart. It’s hard to miss when every program describes itself back to back.

Questions worth asking:

  • When does attorney-client privilege apply?
  • Who do I actually talk to when I call after an incident?
  • Does anyone need to approve my defense before it starts?
  • What happens if I’m offered a plea?
  • Does my homeowners or renters policy already cover any of this?

  • Location: Veterans Building - 1094 Petaluma Blvd S, Petaluma, California

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

Covers Invalid/Expired CCW Permit

Right to Bear’s FAQ states “Protection applies when your actions are lawful under state and local law.” In jurisdictions that require a carry license, an expired or absent permit means the carry was not lawful under state law.
