Why Choose Legal Club of America

Why Choose a Legal Plan?

Nearly 9 out of 10 employees experienced at least one legal concern during the past year¹. Whether it’s a traffic ticket, divorce, home purchase, estate planning or a contract dispute, legal concerns can draw employee’s attention away from work. This results in increased absenteeism, which costs companies millions of dollars in lost productivity and profits. Consider these facts:

• There are more than 100 million court cases in the U.S. every year.²
• 78% of American adults do not have an updated will.³
• 50% of all marriages end in divorce.⁴
• 50% of residential real estate transactions involve a dispute.⁵
• Bankruptcy filings have almost doubled since 1990.⁶
• More than 10 million Americans are victims of Identity Theft each year.⁷
• 59% of men and 54% of women surveyed felt a group legal benefit would influence their choice of employer.⁸

Why Choose the Family Protection Plan?

Legal issues rarely exist in a vacuum. Mounting debt, tax problems, substance abuse, identity theft, marital and family problems are often the catalyst for legal care. Each year, 48% of employees take time off from work for a family legal matter.9 Much of that time is spent seeking legal advice, and care, at a price that the average employee can not afford. The Family Protection Plan provides members with access to a nationwide network of professionals who provide free and discounted services in the following areas: Legal Care, Tax Preparation & Advice, Identity Theft Restoration, Financial Education, Credit Counseling and Personal Counseling.

Having an affordable way to address these needs goes a long way towards increasing employee productivity and enhancing their quality of life.
