Everyone deserves legal protection

You can use your plan as soon as your membership application is reviewed and your account is set up. The review process takes 12-24 hours (or less) from the moment you purchase your plan (on regular business days). Once accepted, you can be in contact with a provider lawyer, after initial contact, and begin to use the plan benefits and member perks outlined in the membership agreement right away.

When you need legal help that does not fall under the standard benefits, you can work with your provider lawyer for 25% off of their standard hourly rates. How much will that cost in the end? The answer depends on factors such as the area of law, your geographic location and your lawyer’s hourly rate. Without more information about your specific situation, it’s impossible to say exactly how much it may cost. What we can say for sure is that if you are a member and work with your provider lawyer under the discounted rates, you’re going to save hundreds if not thousands of dollars over hiring a lawyer directly. The best way to find out exactly how much something might cost is to purchase a plan, speak to a provider lawyer and then they can tell you the costs.
