What if you had a lawyer who would answer your phone calls willingly, would consult with you by phone for unlimited matters, would review or create documents for you, and who would defend you for over 300 hours of trial time, should the need arise? What if you could also make out your will, advance directive and health care power of attorney all together at the same time? What if the lawyer would defend you at an IRS audit, up to 60 hours, and then defend you from traffic ticket charges or the repercussions thereof? Then, on top of everything, they give you a 25% discount on their regular rates for any other condition not listed above? How such will such a lawyer cost you? Five thousand dollars a year, $10,000?
What if you could get together a large enough buying force to make it worth this law firm's while to accept $26.00 per month for such services.

These professionals always strive to guard the privacy of their clients and to serve them well along the way. A quick, fifteen minutes can explain all you need to know about prepaid legal services contracts.
