Real L.A. Law: Live, Uncut And Censored

By Robin Greene-Parkinson, Canyon News February 11, 2007

“I was raped recently by my boss, who is CEO of a Fortune 500 company. I don’t know what to do as he is avoiding me, and I’m afraid I’m going to be fired.”

“I have worked for the school district in Northridge for 23 years, got hurt on the job, went on disability for six months, went back to work and got fired. Is this legal?”

“My son was found dead in his home. There was a gun on the floor and the police say it was a suicide, but I don’t buy that. What can I do?”

These are just some of the questions asked on Legal Help Live.

Unscripted, educational, entertaining and controversial, Legal Help Live covers such issues as how to deal with traffic tickets and landlord/tenant problems to criminal issues such as embezzlement, homicide and rape. Legal Help Life covers the gamut.

Legal Help Live is L.A.’s Only Live, Legal TV show.

Think of Car Talk (if the two mechanics were attorneys) meets Larry King. At Legal Help Live, anyone is encouraged to call in and ask a legal question, any question, and get a legal answer. But the show is much more than that. It is informative, entertaining, opinionated and controversial.

From Law & Order and L.A. Law to The Firm and Court TV, American’s are obsessed by the workings of the legal system, but only one Los Angeles TV show gives the real lowdown on L.A. law. Hosted by awardwinning attorneys from the law firm of Solomon, Saltsman & Jamieson, Legal Help Live answers Angelenos’s legal questions.
