Legal issues are more prevalent than one might assume. In fact, three out of four employees will experience a legal event each year.1
And many people don't seek legal advice, often because of a lack of knowledge regarding their particular issue and uncertainty about where to turn to resolve it.
Given these numbers, it's safe to assume that a decent portion of any workplace's employees are facing legal issues, and may not know where to go for help. A legal insurance plan, with a built-in network of attorneys and 100% paid-in-full network attorney fees for most covered services, is the easiest way to provide guidance for the some of the most common legal issues:2
- Wills
- Divorce
- Traffic
- Property Transfers
- Trusts
- Consumer Protection
- Bankruptcy
- Defense of Civil Damage
- Property Protection
- Family Law Decree
Employees are less stressed and more productive when they are not facing legal issues – or handling them alone. Given that many Americans face these types of legal issues every day, a legal insurance plan may be beneficial to a majority of your employees.
A legal plan provides resources and a place to turn when employees are looking for answers to legal situations and needing a resolution.
