I am the widow of my beloved Air Force Veteran (among many other things) husband and his death from turbo cancer this last year has left me in a very precarious financial and general life situation. I am living in a rent to own mobile home in which the toxic mold infestation that is affecting my health was obfuscated by the owner, or we would never have signed the rent to own agreement. Because I asked the owner to remediate the mold (caused by her years of negligent maintenance of this mobile home)she has now served me with an eviction lawsuit. I cannot afford an attorney to represent me, but at least LegalShield has given me valuable guidance that has bought me some time during these dire straits I find myself in, at age 72.
Attorney Elizabeth took the time to listen to my issue, get the notes needed, wrote a very powerful letter and now just waiting on a response. The letter was so powerful that I wanted to give myself a refund.

Legal shield referred me to a law firm for estate planning. The Firm was extremely expensive even after the 25 percent discount. The forms I needed filled out I filled them out myself, the lawyer from Legall Shield verified that I had the correct forms and that they were filled out correctly. That extended help saved me hundreds of dollars.
Yolanda, thank you for sharing your experience and being so thoughtful in describing how the help informed your process. Thank you for being a valued member and opting for peace of mind with our service.

Business History
In 1969, an Oklahoma insurance salesman named Harland Stonecipher was in a car accident. Even though he was not at fault, Harland had trouble paying the expensive legal fees from the accident. He did not want others to be caught in the same financial predicament. Three years later, Harland became the founder, chairman, and Chief Executive Officer of Pre-Paid Legal Services, Inc.
Harland pioneered the idea of a network of law firms that makes legal representation accessible and affordable. For 40 years, Harland led his company from a one-room operation to being listed on the New York Stock Exchange in 1999. Today, this vision of affordable quality legal services is known as LegalShield. Although Harland passed away in November of 2014, LegalShield is stronger than ever, serving 4.5 million individuals and 140,000 business across North America. Our mission is to protect and empower people with the tools and services needed to affordably live a just and secure life.
