TESTIMONIAL: Elevate Your Empowerment and Get That Contract Checked by a Lawyer! This week I was asked by my new employer to sign a Non-Compete and a Confidentiality Agreement. This is the 1st time in 27 years in this industry that I've ever been approached with these. I have never even heard of another elevator mechanic being asked to sign these. So, I told him I would like to have my lawyer review them first. When the law firm called me back, he stated that "This is real...ly unusual in this case I don't think for a minute that a lawyer drew these upthese have a high probability of not being enforceable in a court of law, and most importantly I don't like these. DO NOT sign these, unless it means that you will lose your position. If that ends up being the case, we can then easily fight this in court." I love my LegalShield membership and WILL NEVER be without it. #LegalAdviceForAll #WeGotYourBack #KnowYourRights

TESTIMONIAL: Customer NO Service: I just want to send you a quick thank you to LegalShield and my provider attorneys. My GPS unit, at less than a year old, broke, so we (per manufacturer’s instructions) packed it up and sent it back ... for a replacement refund. Fast-forward through six months of transferred and hung-up-on calls to the clueless customer service department, and we still had nothing. I asked for help from my provider attorney. [My provider law firm] sent a demand letter for $125.00 (the purchase price) to the GPS company, and two weeks later, we had a check for $178.00! *We don’t know where the extra $53 came from THANK YOU. #LegalShield4Life Ask me about it.

TESTIMONIAL From a satified member: Problem Solved! Two days ago I received a letter from my insurance company outlining the details of services that were rendered and the charges. ... I recognized two of the doctors that I saw. One of them I did not recognize and was billing my insurance company $800.00. I contacted them to see where this doctor is located and find he is in the emergency room. He ordered a sonogram and a medication that was not administered to me. At first I thought of ID theft. This was not the case. The doctor decided to bill me for services that were NOT rendered. I had the law firm write a letter on my behalf to this doctor to correct the problem because the hospital refused to help me and said I received these services. After the doctor received my letter from my provider law firm, he sent me a letter apologizing for the discrepancy. He also offered to pay my bill of $127.00 for the medication that was provided. He said his nurse made the mistake and therefore immediate action was taken to not have this problem happen again. Not only was he humiliated, but he does not want this to happen again because his reputation is on the line. The hospital called to advise me they were correcting the bill and apologized for any inconvenience it caused me. They also advised me the doctor took care of a bill for $127.00 for the confusion. On a side note, the lady from the hospital's billing department said this was the first time a doctor ever took time to correct a bill and she was totally shocked when the doctor advised her about paying a bill for a patient he didn’t know, and surprised how this was taken care of immediately. I advised her of LegalShield. She scheduled an appointment to get her family protected. #LegalShield4Life

TESTIMONIAL: Unfair Employer I just wanted to let you know the results of a letter sent for us on our behalf by [a lawyer]. After what we felt was a breach of contract with a company that my husband was recently working for, [the lawyer] consulted with us, reviewed our documents and then sent a letter for us demanding compensation. ... Two weeks later, we received a cheque from the company for $6,814.90 for vacation pay not yet taken, as agreed upon in the contract. Also, as it turns out, because we know what our rights are from the advice given by [our lawyer], we can still go after the company for another $4,500.00 where they illegally deducted worker’s safety benefits from our cheque. Because LegalShield informed us of our rights, we made another phone call to a certain government department where they will investigate this company and force them to pay back our $4,500.00 That’s a total of $11,314.00 we would have walked away from, had we not had our LegalShield membership. The only legal fee to us was our monthly LegalShield membership which has now been paid for the next 26 years! Thank you Mr. Stonecipher (company founder) for your courage and wisdom in making Equal Access to the justice system a reality for all. And thank you [lawyer] for your diligent assistance in this matter. #LegalShield4Life Ask me about it.

TESTIMONIAL: DUI Drama My dad was in a very serious car accident last July. I called our LegalShield provider law firm in Texas with all kinds of questions & concerns. Because the accident was in SC, they transferred me to the law firm there. Since it was criminal, DUI, it fell under our 25% discount off services & I was referred to a local attorney. The county set a court date for him & he missed it because he was in ICU for 2 months. His nurse called me one night to inform... me that when they were ready to discharge him, they would have to contact the cops because he had warrants for missing his court date. Needless to say, I was a frantic bundle of nerves a 1000 miles away. I called his attorney to tell him about all this & he told me, breathe, I’ll take care of this & get back to you. When he called back, he explained in legal terms how he was able to get rid of the warrants, I didn’t understand it all, but rested easier because I knew he took care of it. When the day came for my dad to be discharged, the cops never came for him. Knowing it wasn’t over, my focused changed to is my dad going to be allowed to come to Texas for our wedding? The attorney said, plan your wedding, don’t worry, I’ll take care of it. He called last Friday to inform me a court date was set for today. Being just under 2 weeks from the wedding, I was extremely nervous to hear this. Mr. Craven called me on my way to work this morning to give me the news, CASE DISMISSED!!!! LegalShield! Definitely the best $25 I spend each month! #LegalShield4Life

TESTIMONIAL: Auto Repair Gone Bad I am a busy TV crew member and I typically work 10-14 hour days. Like everyone, I feel my time (and time off) is extremely valuable. A few months ago I took my vehicle in for service at a highly rated and very reputable shop for an oil change. No big deal, right? After I picked up my car, I noticed the engine sounded a little strange and it suddenly had a noticeable oil leak. I went back to the shop for them to take a look at it, and seems... they added oil without draining the old oil first, so it was overfilled by 4 quarts and the pressure blew out the rear main seal causing the oil leak. The shop drained the oil, but then refused to take responsibility for the new leak. I left the shop pretty ticked off and feeling like I'd been treated really unfairly. So, pulled out my phone, tapped my app and called LegalShield once I got home. The attorney who called me back recommended I get a few estimates for repair, and get those to him. After my attorney had the estimates, he wrote a demand letter to the shop that messed up my car for the amount of the repair. I took my car elsewhere to be repaired (no longer trusted the first place) and yesterday I received a check from the original shop for $1,750 the full amount. I don’t think I would have seen a dime without my attorney's help. Thank you, LegalShield!" -- Another Happy Member
