The Eye Witness Account of "Been there, Done That.."

First person, true to life experiences, are the greatest source of information when you are trying to determine truth. Eye witnessed, pain felt, thought out and dealt with. This is an account you can place faith in, the true "Been there, done that.."

There is a member testimonial page up on the Pre-Paid Legal, now LegalShield website. There are stories and first hand accounts from members who actually use the Pre-Paid Legal Services, for all sorts of issues, and it will make you grin when you think of how many times people say "I don't need a lawyer; I haven't done anything wrong, and I don't plan on it..."

A brief letter below from the founder of Pre-Paid Legal, Harland Stonecipher:

“In our society today, it is better to be guilty and rich than to be innocent and poor.”

That comment was made to the world during a feature on the ABC program, Nightline. It is a statement that is as true as it is disappointing. The fact is “Equal Justice Under Law” is just not true. In actuality, such equality has been available only to those who could afford it. The purpose of this collection of letters is to showcase the solution.
Reading these letters, you will learn through several firsthand accounts how our members have utilized our product. You’ll read how they saved themselves and their families time, money, and stress. Many of the stories include dramatic recounts of the circumstances surrounding their legal situation, while others simply illustrate the value of having legal advice a phone call away no matter how seemingly trivial the topic might be.
We know the wealthiest 10 percent of the population keep their own legal teams on retainer. Conversely, the bottom 10 percent are provided access to the public defender system. It is our goal to make sure the 80 percent in between have a legal voice, and that “Equal Justice Under Law” is a reality for them also!
Harland C. Stonecipher
Chairman, CEO and Founder
Pre-Paid Legal Services ®, Inc.

This collection of letters is dedicated to the more than one million families served by Pre-Paid Legal Services ®, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

In America, every generation is born with a dream. With the notion of equality. With the freedom to make certain choices. To exercise certain rights. The right to life. The right to liberty. The right to pursue happiness.

But it wasn’t until Harland Stonecipher was blindsided by a motor vehicle and hospitalized in 1969 that he realized it was money, not rights that gained you access to our legal system. And after depleting his life savings defending himself against something he didn’t do, Harland Stonecipher was determined to make legal protection accessible to everyone, everywhere, no matter how traumatic or trivial the situation, so that no one would ever be blindsided again.
And that’s exactly what he did.

Harland Stonecipher built a business offering legal expense reimbursement to its members. And while it was quite successful, it wasn’t enough. There was still opportunity to give people more. It was the early 90s when an idea, to create a proprietary network, truly changed the game.

It meant that instead of hundreds of good attorneys serving hundreds of customers, now there was one dedicated law firm serving thousands of members. And instead of attorneys waiting for work to get paid, they were prepaid. The business model for legal products was turned on its head. And a whole new scope and level of service was born.

What had been a good product became a great product. And now on-call advice went from being the privilege of the few to the right of the many.
That’s the product we sell today. How good does it feel to be able to offer that kind of service to your friends, your neighbors, your community?

Our product is something to be proud of. It has stood the test of time. Forty years and twenty million times our lawyers have been there to protect their clients. Helping them, our four million users, live their lives on their own terms.

Our members fear nothing, the protection of our product is total, a shield that watches over them and their loved ones, protecting their rights, their freedom and their future.

Everyone, everywhere deserves to wake up with peace of mind,

feeling protected every day, every night, now and forever

by our new company….

Legal Shield. Total Access. Total Freedom.

Rising Online Identity Theft; Are You a Victim?

 Rising Online Identity Theft

The quick facts listed below concerning online security and identity theft, show that not all internet sites are as safe as we would like them to be. If they are not protected by industry standard security protocols, you me become a victim, and a statistic.

As use of the internet has grown, the web has also become more popular with scammers, identity thieves, and other cybercriminals. Threats to internet users have become widespread, and it is estimated that more than 3.5 million people fall victim to “phishing”— a type of online identity theft—each year in the United States alone. 1

Given the number of people who experience phishing and other web-based scams or hear about them from friends, family, or on the news—many internet users don’t feel comfortable sharing their real names or other personal details online. In fact, recent research indicates that more than 62 percent of internet users in the United States are concerned about their online security. 2
