Look before you take the leap into pre-paid legal services
Choosing a pre-paid legal plan is a good way to save big bucks, but choosing a plan you need and a provider you can trust is a different matter. Here is a number of things to look for in a legal plan from the very start:
Look for whats covered: Legal plans are offered in different models and differ in the specifics of what they cover. While phone consultation and simple drafting and reviewing of simple contracts are included across the board, more elaborate and complicated legal matters are not covered. Its best to review your own legal needs before you choose a legal plan. Ask which legal services will you need most and then choose a plan that provides the best coverage given those needs. For instance, if you are a business owner, lawsuits, lease and contract negotiations could be high on your list and you would be looking for a legal plan that provides coverage accordingly.
Know what legal coverage you already have Dont pay for coverage twice! If you have car insurance, then you are covered for liability and medical protection, home insurance covers you for injuries sustained on your property...
