Pleased with Prepaid

We have been nothing but pleased. When people have the proper understanding what the plan has to offer, there is only one choice. Get the plan. Correct, it does not cover everything. What it does is give you access to the legal system for a fraction of the up-front cost. Then you have a choice what to do. Either the plan covers the situation or you take the 25% discount. They keep adding benefits to the plan. Each year, it seems to get better and better. We have used and love the service.

Very Satisfied

I've used them for almost two years now in S. California and they have been great. My very first issue was to get a creditor off my back that was going after me for over $2000. PPL drafted one letter with strong words and and the creditor wrote me a very apologetic letter releasing me of any financial obligations. With that initial savings, I believe it has more than paid for itself these past two years. PPL has reviewed many documents for me and has given me great advice on my real estate investments and other business ventures. The attorney they referred me to, in another state, to get my son was superb. I can not see myself canceling this membership for sometime now. PPL is an excellent resource.

Top Notch Attorneys

Just want to say that the attorneys they use are top notch. They care about helping people. I hit a car carrier loaded with brand new SUVs that was doing a U-turn across both lanes of traffic in thick fog at the bottom of a short hill and the sheriff didn't ticket the driver because there wasn't a "no u-turn" sign. Duh. If I couldn't see him, how could he see oncoming traffic? I lost my car, could've been killed, and was going to have to pay for my own medical and ambulance, etc. The trucking company wasn't offering anything, since according to the accident report, their driver wasn't at fault. My prepaid attorney advised me, filed suit, handled all correspondence and communication with the trucking company and the insurance companies for me, and arranged settlement so that all my expenses were covered without my coming out of pocket a single penny above my $14.95 per month fee. Thanks Prepaid! We've used our service several times now for large and small issues, always to our benefit. The service does what it was designed to do. Even if you have the best health care insurance, you still expect to pay some deductible and co-insurance. The point to having insurance services is that you end up paying well less than what you would've paid to have that same service without coverage. Without coverage, I would have had nothing because I couldn't afford to hire a great attorney out of the phone book and pay a retainer. Pre-paid Legal Services is great. Thanks again!
