Waste of time and money.

Not helpful or very informative. Also unprofessional the way he spoke of court clerks being rude and bored.

Not worth the money

He literally tells you to use google, which is free. I paid $7 to listen to a guy to tell me to use google.

Not Great...Basic

of course a guy that Seems to sue for a living, would save money on the narrator. I should sue for my money back on this purchase. sounds like it was read off paper in a basement, by a non attorney. If you own an airline it would be cost effective to buy this guy a ticket on a competitor airline.
