Problem
Individuals often lack immediate access to legal guidance during interactions with law enforcement, leading to potential misunderstandings, rights infringements, and escalated situations. The absence of a documented record can also create challenges in ensuring accountability and fair treatment for all parties involved.
Solution
TurnSignl provides a mobile application that connects users with attorneys via live video chat during traffic stops and other law enforcement encounters. With a single button press or voice command, the app initiates a recording of the interaction, which is stored securely in the user's personal cloud storage. A qualified attorney then joins the call to provide real-time legal guidance, de-escalate the situation, and protect the user's rights. The attorney is licensed in the user's jurisdiction. TurnSignl aims to ensure safety, accountability, and a clear understanding of legal rights for both civilians and law enforcement officers during these interactions.
Target Audience
TurnSignl primarily targets individuals who want immediate access to legal guidance and a secure record of their interactions with law enforcement, as well as attorneys seeking to expand their reach and businesses looking to offer legal support as an employee benefit.
