Plan Rate

Your benefits include a special plan discount of 25% off of the attorneys' normal hourly rates for all covered services that do not have a special rate or any cost attached to them.

Discounted Contingency Fees

Contingency rate discounts apply in those cases where attorneys customarily take a case on a contingency fee [an agreed upon portion of any recovery to you], depending upon what happens when the case ends.

In some cases, contingency fee maximums are set by state law. In these matters, your fee will be the lower of either 10% less than the maximum fee set by state law or the attorney’s usual fee. For example, if your state has a fee maximum of 30%, you would pay the lower of either 27% or the attorney’s usual fee. If the attorney would normally charge 25%, you would pay this percentage because it is the lower rate.

When state laws do not set contingency fee maximums, your guaranteed discounted rate will not exceed:

29% if settled before trial,
36% if awarded during or after a trial, or
40% after an appellate brief is filed

Consultation & Referral

Your free consultation benefit covers up to thirty (30) minutes in the Plan Attorney's office, over the phone or online with the Plan Attorney. The number of consultations is unlimited, except that each one must be on a different legal matter. Consultations are provided by the local Plan Attorney who is determined to be the best match for your needs by your Personal Access Specialist (PAS).

Document Review*

This benefit is available up to three times each year and can be used for documents that total six pages or less. This can be handled in person with the Plan Attorney, online with the Plan Attorney.

Dispute Resolution Calls & Letters*

If you and your attorney agree that such resolution will likely resolve your matter, you are entitled to have a phone call or a letter made by your Plan Attorney. This benefit is available up to three times each year.

Simple Will

What constitutes a Simple Will varies by state, so it is difficult to give parameters into which your will must fall in order to be covered. This benefit is provided by completing a Will questionnaire which will be reviewed by a local Plan Attorney. You will have the option to include additional information with your basic Will questionnaire and have the Plan Attorney review your situation and make recommendations for other documents that may be helpful. From the time we receive your Will kit there is typically a four to six week turnaround time for your Will to be completed. Your benefits also cover an annual update of your will each year enrolled.

Living Will

If you have a simple will, your benefits also cover a living will for you and your spouse.

Small Claims Court Preparation Consultation

This benefit is available at no additional charge by phone with the Plan Attorney. Each problem can also be accessed in person with the Plan Attorney or online with the Plan Attorney at a discounted hourly rate.

*If you wish to utilize this benefit you MUST request it when calling our Customer Service Center for the initial referral. This benefit must be authorized prior to calling the Plan Attorney. If you decide after you have already received a referral that you need to utilize this benefit, you must call our Customer Service Center first. Plan Attorneys may not provide this service without authorization.

Plan Cost

The Family Legal Protection Plan is only $7.00 per pay-period, based on a 24-pay period deduction schedule, via payroll deduction.

* Limitations apply.
