In 1968, Hollywood-based attorney Walter E. Hurst released the "Law, You and..." series of records, intended to educate the public about various legal topics, as well as serving as an advertisement for the law practice of "$40 an hour Hollywood Attorney Walter E. Hurst." The records consisted of a simulated consultation between Hurst and a "client," offering instruction on the law in a particular subject area. Apparently, Hurst released records on divorce, narcotics, auto accidents, illegal sex, and crime. The records were released by "LAW.U RECORDS, a division of 7 Arts Press, Inc., 6000 Sunset Boulevard, Hollywood, California 90028," presumably Hurst's own label. Hurst also published many self-help legal instruction books on the music and motion picture industries."Law, You and... Divorce" obviously covers the subject of divorce. According to the record cover:This is a recorded simulated interview between client and attorney telling you what you should know about filing for divorce: your rights, your obligations, and your costs.This record will save you money BECAUSE you will learn the basics of your law case as you listen to an initial interview with $40.00 per hour attorney WALTER E. HURST the man from Law-U involving data, facts and how the law applies to you from opening fact-gathering to legal fees.Through this Recording you will learn about your case as if you were being interviewed by your attorney.
