Life is just better with LegalShield. Today's member story:
“We were rear-ended while stopped at a light. Could have been worse. The 19-year old who hit us accepted fault. Our car was a little damaged, and while my husband wasn’t hurt, my back and shoulder were affected and I ended up needing to go to physical therapy to loosen things up. Her insurance was nice, or so I thought! The agent asked if I wanted to ‘close my case’ on medical and offered me $500 ‘for my trouble’. I thought it was a nice gesture, but when she sent papers for me to sign, I decided to call LegalShield first. I had a call back from an attorney pretty quick who listened, gave me excellent info and advice, and said the $500 offer was an insult - I should not sign anything. We’ve had LegalShield more than 20 years; it’s the best ($29.95) a month we spend, and this was another example. It cost me nothing to spend an hour on the phone with an attorney who specializes in auto accidents after that first call in, and that first call kept me from making a big mistake! We ended up talking with our attorney several more times, and were guided through all communication with the other driver’s insurance company; that initial $500 offer ended up becoming a $5700 check AFTER they paid for repairing my vehicle and covering my physical therapy appointments. Everyone should have LegalShield.”
