Attorneys On RetainerAttorneys On Retainer (AOR) is a self-defense legal support membership program offered through a direct attorney-client relationship with The Attorneys For Freedom Law Firm (AFF), an Arizona-based law firm that states it has successfully represented clients in major felony cases since 1997 and now represents clients only in self-defense cases nationally. AOR positions itself as an alternative to insurance-backed self-defense plans, emphasizing that coverage and decisions are made by experienced criminal defense attorneys rather than insurance adjusters, and that attorney-client privilege attaches immediately when members become clients of AFF. AOR provides representation in all 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia in collaboration with local co-counsel, using pro hac vice admissions where needed. The program highlights 24/7/365 emergency access to a trial attorney via an emergency hotline and describes an “elite Strike Force team” designed to respond quickly to self-defense-related emergencies. In addition to law firm representation, AOR includes membership/affiliate participation in The Attorneys On Retainer Association (described as a nonprofit association). The association layer adds online self-defense education and training, a commission-based affiliate program (Freedom Affiliate and Armed Affiliate tiers), newsletters and conferences, discounts, legal advocacy, and pro bono initiatives. AOR also references benefits provided through The Attorneys For Freedom Risk Retention Group, Inc. (AFF-RRG) for certain coverages such as civil liability, red flag/emergency order matters, expungement/record clearing, and other incident-related benefits.
