TurnSignl is a mobile app designed to, essentially, put an attorney in the car with anyone who gets pulled over. Users get real-time assistance from a trained local lawyer who can help de-escalate the situation while protecting a user’s rights. The app also records a user’s interaction with the police. This is all to ensure that everyone, users and police officers, feel safe and comfortable.
TurnSignl recently won the Startup Alley competition at the ABA Techshow 2022 and is currently available in Minnesota, Georgia and California.
In this new episode of the Legal Rebels Podcast, Hampton talks about how TurnSignl works; the benefits of using the app for users, lawyers and police officers; and his plans for the future.
