Legal Shield Plans – Standard Family Plan
Members receive unlimited phone consultations with their appointed law firm, an unlimited number of contract and document reviews, and have one free Will drawn up for the primary member. Members can also have their attorney send letters or make a phone call on their behalf to address a troublesome issue.  Legal services include representation for minor offenses like traffic tickets, and major offenses like manslaughter or vehicular homicide. Members also receive a set number of hours for trial defense per year. The company also provides audit defense, whereby members receive up to 50 hours of legal help should they ever receive notice of an Audit from the IRS.

Legal Shield Plans – Expanded Family Plan

Prepaid Legal Plans – Business Plans
These plans focus on providing services to small businesses with 99 employees or less. Members are provided with unlimited phone consultations for advice on basic legal matters such as verbal contracts and small claims. For more involved legal issues like securities and patents, members get two consultations per year. The Provider Law Firm will also write one legal letter per subject per year.  Additional services include basic review of three contracts per year, one executed contract per month, up to three business documents review and ten debt collection letters (each must be separate matters).
