I paid into TVC for two yrs . Got a speeding tkt. in Jan. Their lawyer completely botched the paperwork requiring original , not faxed release forms. Judge closed case for lack of proper filing, GUILTY. Then, the lawyer missed the 20 deadline to file my appeal. TVC clearly wants to take NO Responsiblity for the negligence of this Attorney, and it appears that they want me to continue to pay for Very Poor legal defense. TVC refuses to address this {expletive deleted} up in a morally responsible manner. Basically, I wasted my money for lousy help. Thanx a bunch TVC. Could've done better myself. I actually had a decent chance for an ammendment, but not now. I now have a Conviction, and could be fired. Beware of TVC, or any other prepaid legal service. They hire lawyers that are not obligated to appear in court if needed. I must be in the 8% , instead or the 92%, Right. My advice is either take time off to fight case yourself, or pay more for a lawyer who actually SHOWS UP AT COURT. {Email address deleted.}
