**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**








**1. Basis of Presentation**





The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310(b) of Regulation S-B and, therefore, do not include all information and disclosure necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, cash flows, and stockholders equity (deficiency) in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations and financial position have been included and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three months ended July 31, 2004, are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for the year ending April 30, 2005.





Balance sheet information as of April 30, 2004, should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year then ended included in the Companys annual report on form 10-KSB, from which it was derived.





The financial statements present the activities of Legal Access Technologies, Inc. ("LATI") and its subsidiaries Tele-Lawyer, Inc. ("Tele-Lawyer") and Perspectives Health Management Corp. ("Perspectives"). All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.





Certain amounts in the prior year quarter financial statements have been reclassified for comparability with the current quarter presentation. In addition, the financial statements for the quarter ended July 31, 2003, have been restated as a result of officer compensation being rescinded later in that year. The effect of the restatement is to reduce general and administrative expenses, loss from continuing operations, and net loss by $208,000.





**2. Going concern contingency.**





As more fully discussed in Item 2, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, the Companys cash resources are fully exhausted, and several loans from the president and the deferral of payment of officers salaries were required. In addition, a summary judgment in favor of the noteholder in the amount of $203,500 plus accrued interest ($61,578 through July 31, 2004) has been entered against the Company. These conditions indicate that the Company may be unable to continue as a going concern. Managements plans in this regard are also described in Item 2 herein. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

**ITEM 2.** **MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS**





**Overview**




Historically, as part of the Tele-Lawyer operations, the Company has been in the business of arranging for licensed attorneys to provide legal advice and information to consumers of legal services. It also produces and sells specialized telephone conferencing applications to professionals and associations.




Over the past few years, the Company changed its business focus by concentrating on sales of technology and services to, and the development of strategic partnerships with, various non-profit associations and government agencies in order to create a number of statewide hubs for access to legal services. While this process expanded the Companys products and services, as well as geographic coverage, the development, maintenance, and sales costs exceeded expectations and resources. As a result, the Company ran short of funding and has had to increasingly cut back on operations and expenses.




On April 28, 2003, the case management system was abandoned, and on March 1, 2004, the Company discontinued legal advice over the telephone and continuing legal education operations. Currently, the Company is only providing telephone and web based technical services to certain legal aid organizations it has under contract and certain other telephone services to existing clients.




To become profitable and avoid going completely out of business, the Company is actively seeking other business opportunities. Details of managements plans follow under "Liquidity and Capital Resources".





**Liquidity and Capital Resources**





As a result of the problems and the resulting delays discussed under "Overview," the Company has largely exhausted its cash reserves and has been seeking additional funding and alternative business opportunities. In order to conserve cash resources, efforts to expand the client/affiliate network of Legal Services have been suspended. Management is currently evaluating a long-term strategy for this component of the business. The Company provides services for legal service organizations in Nevada, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Kentucky, and Maryland. It has also cut costs and reduced staff by approximately 55% since July 2003.





Moreover, the Companys President and Chief Executive Officer, Kyleen Elisabeth Cane, has made a series of supporting loans to the Company to cover its costs of operations. These loans are secured by the Companys assets. The latest of these loans was made necessary to buy out an expensive long-term lease at the Companys old office address. The Company moved out of this old office and into a much smaller office space in December 2003.





Management notes that without additional financing, the future of the Companys business remains uncertain. These conditions indicate that the Company may be unable to continue as a going concern. Accordingly, in its report on the Companys audited financial statements on and for the year ended April 30, 2004, the Companys independent auditors expressed substantial doubt as to


2  its ability to continue as a going concern.





The Company expects to continue negative cash flows from operating activities and cash resources to be exhausted without additional debt or equity financing. Management is currently working to raise additional capital, but has no current prospects.





Management is considering a private placement or a merger to fund operations, however, there is no assurance that such funding will occur.





**Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates**





The Company does not employ any critical accounting policies or estimates that are either selected from among available alternatives or require the exercise of significant management judgment to apply.





**Results of Operations**





Revenue growth has ceased and now is negative as the Company has terminated services that were not cost effective. The Company received revenues of $25,499, during the three months ended July 31, 2004, compared to revenue of $42,811, during the same three months of the prior year. Although the case management system has been completed, due to a number of factors including the longer than expected testing and implementation periods and time required to stabilize the product, many of the Companys legal service organization clients have not been fully activated and all but one have cancelled their contracts. The revenues from this contract are not material and are included in discontinued operations.





Operating expenses decreased by $285,139 during the three month period ended July 31, 2004, as compared to the same three months of the prior year. The decrease in these expenses over the comparative periods reflects the Companys continual efforts to reduce costs. The Company incurred $25,892 in service costs during the three month period ended July 31, 2004, as compared to $38,066 during the same three months of the prior year. The Companys selling, general and administrative expenses declined primarily due to the buy out of the expensive long-term lease.





The Company has stopped making any substantial investment in the development of its software products, focusing instead on the operation of its web-based systems for existing clients and new business opportunities.





**Forward Looking Statements**





The information contained in this section and elsewhere may at times represent management's best estimates of the Companys future financial and technological performance, based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable. Management makes no representation or warranty, however, as to the accuracy or completeness of any of these assumptions, and nothing contained in this document should be relied upon as a promise or representation as to any future performance or events. The Companys ability to accomplish these objectives and whether or not it will be financially successful is dependent upon numerous factors, each of which could have a material effect on the results obtained. Some of these factors are within the discretion and control of management and others are beyond management's control. Management considers the assumptions and hypothesis used in preparing any forward looking assessments of profitability contained in this document to be reasonable; however, the Company cannot assure investors that any projections or


3  assessments contained in this document, or otherwise made by management, will be realized or achieved at any level.





**ITEM 3.** **CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES**





As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), the Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures as of July 31, 2004. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Companys Chief Executive and Financial Officer, Ms. Kyleen Cane. Based upon that evaluation, the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting management to material information required to be included in the Companys periodic SEC filings. There have been no significant changes in the Companys internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date the Company carried out its evaluation.





Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Companys reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Companys reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
