About Me

PLEASE READ:

WE WILL NOT RESPOND TO LEGAL QUESTIONS OR GIVE LEGAL REFERRALS THROUGH MYSPACE.

Please do not add us to your Myspace Group.The National Lawyers Guild is an association dedicated to the need for basic change in the structure of our political and economic system. We seek to unite the lawyers, law students, legal workers and jailhouse lawyers in an organization that shall function as an effective political and social force in the service of the people, to the end that human rights shall be regarded as more sacred than property interests.

Also, we like to wear shiny green hats. New & Noteworthy... Click on a box to find out more.
