Attorneys are not business experts. The need for

professionals to collaborate for the benefit of their

clients has never been more apparent.

Attorneys are just one example of the

plethora (large number) of professionals

striving to optimize

services on behalf of clients.

Attorneys want us to believe they are the

solution to every legal problem. They are not.

FACT: Problems are bigger than attorneys. How?

"The access-to-justice crisis is bigger than law and lawyers. It is a crisis of exclusion and inequality." 1

Just ask an attorney, any attorney, to give you a written

guarantee that he/she will win your case. They never will.

Why? Because they don’t know what a judge, jury or

participating parties will do before they actually do it.

"Although your chances of success can't be guaranteed, discuss approaches to your case." 2

FACT: Attorneys are trained according to their

chosen interests. Never assume an attorney to

know everything about the law, they don’t. Some

struggle mightily in their

own area of specialization.

"While law firms usually offer some on boarding and training, there is a certain amount of floundering and learning on the job that has been par for the course for generations..." 3

Do we dislike attorneys or lawyers? No.

Some of them are

family, close friends, former employers and admired

professionals. In fact, if they are qualified and

necessary, we may elect to hire them.

"Choosing the right law ﬁrm can be a vital decision," said Tim Smart, executive editor at U.S. News & World Report." 4

In our Director's role as a Bank Liquidation Officer

with the

FDIC, it was his responsibility to retain and release

attorneys

on a regular basis in order to protect taxpayer interests

(failed bank assets.)

Failed bank assets were liquidated with goals and

objectives

to maximize taxpayer values while introducing new

legislation to protect bank depositors.

"The Depository Institutions Deregulation and Monetary Control Act of 1980 (DIDMCA) phased out deposit interest-rate ceilings, broadened the powers of thrift institutions, and raised the deposit insurance limit from $40,000 to $100,000." 5

FACT: Demands on the legal profession are far

greater than courts and officers of the court

(attorneys) can handle.

"Corporate reliance on non-law firm competitors has been increasing, the report found, and alternative legal service providers are increasingly being used by law firms themselves—65% of big law firms used them for e-discovery services, 52% used them for litigation and investigations support, and 50% used them for legal research services." 6

FACT: For decades, attorneys have done

everything in their power to protect their

perceived professional domain,

consumer demand has overwhelmed them.

Smart attorneys

recognize that they are not alone in the

professional realm,

they can’t solve every problem, nor should they try.

"Today’s savvy legal consumer doesn’t need attorneys the way they used to because they don’t buy legal services the way they used to." 7

FACT: Our Director studied law at a highly

regarded Colorado college of law and teamed

with attorneys to conduct legal research,

investigations and settlement negotiations.

"The simple truth is that specialization leads to exceptional work. For that reason, we recommend outsourcing your legal research needs to an outside provider..." 8

FACT: Many wonderful people that deserve help

are falling through the cracks because attorney's

financial demands are either too high or they’re

turned away in frustration because

the attorney doesn’t see an opportunity to make

enough money. Folks, many attorneys see profit

and loss, debit and credit, revenue or expense. If

your situation is outside their preference, they are

going to turn you away.

"One of the most perplexing facts about our perplexing legal market is its failure to provide affordable services for just about anyone but rich people and corporations." 9

FACT: We are members of the business community

collaborating with other professionals to bring rarely

accessible resources to consumers that need help.

"Advances in technology such as artificial intelligence allow modern software to scan legal documents, streamline communications and find relevant casework for lawyers. McKinsey estimates that 23% of work done by lawyers can be automated by existing technology." 10

FACT: Many consumers that make a law

office their first stop

in seeking a solution to a problem leave

frustrated and angry.

Why? They’re told they have to pay a retainer

they can’t afford, they’re told they don’t

have a case or in a worst case

scenario, they hire the wrong attorney, it

costs far too much money and the problem

never gets resolved or they end up

with an unfavorable result.

'We value our work because it is a genuine opportunity to help

people. Let's say that again, we value our work because

it is a genuine opportunity to help people.'

Every project we accept is a serious responsibility.

Our business ethics and respect for the law are above

reproach.

"Rather than a shortage of people who need lawyers, what we are seeing is a disgraceful failure of our legal system to meet the serious legal needs of most Americans, who are increasingly priced out of the market for legal services." 11

FACT: Our founder, Douglas Rodriguez, studied in-person on

campus and earned a graduate degree in 2017

MBA (Master of Business Administration)

from one of the finest business universities

in the United States,

Kansas State University

College of Business Administration

According to U.S. News and World Report there are 4, 298 degree granting universities in the U.S. In 2020 Kansas State University ranks #76 among top public schools and #162

among national universities. 12

Leading universities verify information provided by

prospective students prior admitting

them. We bring that assurance to our clients. 13

Moreover, our founder didn’t shy

away because others saw

the path forward as impossible.

Why? Because making a

positive difference in the lives

of people matters. Helping

people is our business purpose,

our mission.
