Best Legal Advice For Pennies – Legal Shield

A Legal Shield membership gives you access to quality law firms for $26 a month or less.

Have you ever…

  • Been overcharged for a repair?
  • Received a summons?
  • Needed Real Estate Advice?
  • Purchased a home?
  • Been Messed around by a contractor?
  • Security deposit issues?
  • Signed a contract or needed one reviewed?
  • Prepared a will?

Even though most people find themselves in these situations, the majority do not seek the advice or help of a qualified lawyer. Why?

  • It may cost too much.
  • They may not know where to begin.
  • The process is intimidating.

You only get as much justice as you can afford. If you don’t know your rights, you simply don’t have any! The top 10% of income earners can afford to have a lawyer on retainer and are accustomed to asking their lawyer for advice before making decisions. What about you?

With Pre-Paid Legal:

  • You know who to call.
  • You’re treated like the firm’s most important client.
  • A one year membership costs $312 or less.

Without Pre-Paid Legal:

  • You may try to handle it yourself.
  • You’ll likely receive as much justice as you can afford.
  • You may pay hundreds of dollars for ONE HOUR of a lawyer’s time.
  • If you don’t know your rights, you don’t have any!

Legal Shield “levels the playing field” in the justice system. With a Legal Shield plan you can say, “I’m going to talk to my lawyer about this.” — and mean it!
