About the Firm | Attorneys for Freedom Law Firm

About The Attorneys For Freedom Law Firm

Established in 1997, The Attorneys For Freedom Law Firm was founded on the principle of always having a genuine commitment to excellence.  Our founder, Marc J. Victor, learned about being committed to excellence during his time serving in The United States Marine Corps.  He has maintained that same commitment to excellence throughout every aspect of our law firm.  We take pride in thinking outside the box to generate creative solutions to problems, and we always represent our clients the way we would want to be represented ourselves. View our mission statement for more on our principles.

With over 30 years of courtroom experience, Attorney Marc J. Victor has been continuously lecturing firearms enthusiasts, at gun clubs, CCW courses, and gun shows, on the legal rights and responsibilities of firearms owners for over 25 years. He has publicly debated pro-2nd Amendment issues many times including in televised debates. He has also presented countless speeches on the criminal justice system and had several high-profile televised debates with elected county attorneys and other high-profile opponents on criminal law-related issues. He has appeared countless times on television and radio programs as an expert legal commentator. 

The law firm has been continually representing clients in major felony matters including 1st-degree murder (with and without the death penalty alleged), 2nd-degree murder, manslaughter, negligent homicide, aggravated assault, endangerment, disorderly conduct, and many other firearms-related offenses since 1997.  Jury trial experience relevant to self-defense-related legal matters includes several firearms-related 1st-degree murder death penalty matters, firearms-related aggravated assault and disorderly conduct cases, as well as firearms-related federal jury trial matters. The law firm has also represented many clients in high-profile cases including cases of national interest broadcast live on Court-TV. See, The Baby Gabriel Case. The firm has also handled countless criminal law-related appeals in both state and federal appellate courts.

Since its founding, the law firm has always placed acting with the highest character and professionalism above profits.  With a national practice entirely limited to defending clients in self-defense cases, we’ll always put your best interests first and work tirelessly to defend you.  

The original law firm name was changed from Marc J. Victor P.C. to The Attorneys For Freedom in 2004 as the law firm grew to include other pro-freedom and pro-2A attorneys.  All attorneys must sign a freedom pledge and be committed to promoting a free society to work at the law firm.   We are also committed to accepting selected pro-bono cases that advance the cause of responsible firearms ownership or freedom generally.

The Attorneys For Freedom Law Firm is a pro-freedom law firm comprised of attorneys who are all uncompromising freedom activists on all issues. The law firm has accepted cases pro bono on high-profile freedom-related issues including opposing legal restrictions during the coronavirus era. The law firm has also brought lawsuits against state governors who imposed arguably unconstitutional restrictions during the coronavirus era. The law firm actively endorses pro-freedom political candidates and supports their campaigns.  Marc J. Victor has twice appeared in televised debates for The United States Senate and promoted uncompromising freedom stances on all issues. The law firm proudly founded the Live and Let Live Global Peace Movement. See, Live and Let Live.

The Live and Let Live Pledge

Live and Let Live is the world’s only real peace movement and is organized around a fundamental principle we call the Live and Let Live Principle. The Live and Let Live Principle generally holds that it is wrong to initiate force, fraud or coercion. In essence, the Principle prohibits aggression while recognizing the fundamental right of reasonable and responsible self-defense to defend against another’s use or substantial threat of an initiation of aggression.

All of our attorneys agree to the Live and Let Live Pledge and Statement of Principles.

I called Attorneys On Retainer and spoke with Derek. I found him to be a caring person who helped me with the entire sign up process. He took his time and answered all my questions. He even called me back to help me with access to my portal.

I had the pleasure of having Attorneys on Retainer on my team recently and I'm glad I went the extra step to not only protect myself but also my family in the event of a self defense matter. Mr Howard my attorney and his team handled the situation in a matter of hours to have a possible costly issue resolved in my favor. Attorneys on Retainer and the teams they have for us to protect our interest are 2nd to none. I would recommend them in a heartbeat. Thank you Attorneys on Retainer.
Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing your experience, David. We’re honored you trusted us to protect both you and your family during such an important situation.

Because I have had a run-in with my local police in the past about defending the life of a third party, I was concerned about police trying to find a way to charge me when I had to defend myself with a knife last night. I called the Emergency number so that I could avoid a "why didn't you call us" conversation later. After I was connected to Howard Snader, he listened to my account of the event that transpired as well as the incident from my past. He assured me that I did the right thing by calling and he checked in on me this morning to make sure I was still a free man. I let him know that assailant had been arrested last night and he is also on an ICE HOLD.
Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing your experience, John. We understand how stressful and uncertain situations like that can be, especially when prior experiences add additional concern. We’re proud Howard was able to provide immediate guidance, reassurance, and follow-up when it mattered most. Having trusted legal support in critical moments is exactly why we do what we do. We’re grateful for your trust and are glad you’re safe.
