This week on DefendMyLife we're going to discuss the benefits of using an attorney to make good decisions, protect your assets, and save yourself money. Wealthy people use attorneys often, not because they like to spend money, but because they like to save money.  We're going to talk about how the proper use of an attorney can save you money and explore some ways that you can use an attorney without breaking the bank.
