Is Divorce in Your Future? Think Prepaid Legal

When I was getting divorced, my ex ran around closing the bank accounts and I ran around stealing the baby pictures. Sometimes, as women, we don’t think in terms of our own financial future, we’re always taught to think of others first. We think it’s not nice to hire a lawyer and sue someone, even if that person is suing us for a divorce. That’s why we need to find an advocate early in the event of divorce. Being caught legally naked doesn’t just happen to women, it can happen to men as well. They’re off on a business trip and come home to their spouses holding a separation agreement tightly and their bank account hostages. Sadly, in divorces – money talks. How do you even the playing field? You find yourself a legal plan that allows you access to lawyers in a timely manner for a discount, like Prepaid Legal. List of Prepaid Legal Benefits

So, unfortunately, I didn’t have the services of Prepaid Legal in my divorce initially. But, when I went in three years later for a child support modification, I did. The lawyer assigned to me went beyond the call of duty for me. I didn’t feel like just another case to her. She was interested and invested in the outcome of my case, just the same as me. She knew all the ways income could be hidden and how to get the information through legal means. She accompanied to court and pretty much held my hand through the entire process. Using Prepaid Legal almost doubled my child support check when I most needed it.

Realizing how valuable the service is, I no longer feel victimized by companies that insist I pay a bill twice threatening to send me to collection agencies. I simply call and can have a lawyer send them a legal letter if they’re still obstinate – for free on my plan. It’s thoroughly amazing how cooperative businesses become when they get a call from my lawyer. They don’t have to know that this isn’t my personal lawyer; I share him or her with all the membership of Prepaid Legal! When I do contracting work, if I have doubts about the contract I am being asked to sign, I forward it to Legal Prepaid for review. They will review it and tell me whether I should or shouldn’t sign – very valuable information in an age when if you blink you may end up being sued when you least expect it.

Which brings me back to the separation agreement that might end up being thrust at you when you least expect it. Take my advice: When we’re young, we don’t think we’ll ever need hospitals, insurance, or an attorney. That’s for old, rich people who have something to lose. Right? Wrong. Having a good relationship with an attorney can help you avoid needless stress and eventually save you lots of money. Signing up for Prepaid Legal was one of the best decisions I ever made. After the legal dust settles, then you can decide whether you want to share the baby pictures with your ex again. By then, you might decide things were done more equitably and being fair will come naturally again. Legal Prepaid offers a variety of plans to suit different needs, not just divorce settlements. They have identity protection plans, plans for the self-employed and businesses, standard and expanded family plans, and plans for commercial drivers and law officers. There is definitely a plan that fits everyone available in their repertoire!
