Law Group Bites the Dust

I mentioned in passing here the "Defense Groups" that advertise on the internet, claiming to "handle cases in all 50 states." Legalpad has this post about the State Bar shutting down one such group, Criminal Defense Associates (cached by Google). Criminal Defense Associates was the "nationwide" criminal defense corporation that, while it was circling the bowl back in April, told the mother of a potential client that for a $15,000 fee they would give the client a 99% chance of beating his case. Good riddance.
