What Is Your Why?
Co-founders Andy Chance and David Walton were struck by a disturbing and brutal incident. After witnessing an innocent man subjected to an unwarranted and violent response by police, both realized the dire need for a better way – an urgent need for everyone to be protected and supported when engaged by police. This moment of injustice and indecency inspired the idea of the ‘Attorney Button’ and the birth of Attorney Shield – conceptualized as an immediate lifeline for constitutional rights protection, legal advocacy, and transparency.
How Did You Get Started In Your Field or Work?
David acquired his technology expertise in former senior roles at FIS Global, Constellation Software, and Lexis Nexis Risk Solutions.
