To provide a better layer of protection for their members, the Combined Law Enforcement Association of Texas (CLEAT) has developed a new app. The exclusive mobile phone app, dubbed the “CLEAT Tactical Bag” puts officers who find themselves in critical situations in touch with a CLEAT lawyer almost instantly.
The app uses GPS technology to connect an officer with an on-call attorney after a critical incident. It’s free, easy to use -- and it’s the only mobile phone app designed exclusively for law enforcement officers.
CLEAT members can get the app by going to the app store and downloading it to their smart phone. In the event of a critical incident, the app automatically enters the officer’s name, email address, phone number and present location. Once the officer types in the information, a CLEAT lawyer will contact the officer immediately. In addition, the officer receives a call with recorded Garrity instructions.
“This innovative tool takes CLEAT attorneys right down to the street – where ever the incident occurs,” said CLEAT Executive Director Charley Wilkison.
Remember, EPMPOA/CLEAT members can always call our local CLEAT Staff Attorneys, Jim Jopling and Alyssa Perez at (915) 533-4924 or toll free (800) 328-9940, anytime of the day or night. Stay Safe!
