ABOUT OUR ATTORNEYS
Our
international network of over 20,000 attorneys is professionally
managed. Attorneys in our network average 19.4 years of experience.
All plan-member attorneys must have a "BV" or better
rating if listed in Martindale-Hubbell, provide us with a
certificate of liability insurance, whether their state requires
it or not, be in good standing with their respective state
bar, have a law office in their respective state and carry
a "Courtesy Rating" of "B" or better.
In addition, Legal Club files a quarterly background disciplinary
report with each state's attorney disciplinary department.
Courtesy ratings as well as
background checks are done every three months. In addition, attorney firms must complete quarterly
surveys reaffirming the accuracy of our database and knowledge
of the plan. Besides Courtesy Rating surveys and quarterly
background checks, we answer to our members. Problems that
arise with a particular attorney are documented and can ultimately
lead to expulsion from our network of attorneys.
Our attorneys abide by a discounted
fee schedule in order to receive member referrals. For example, planmember attorneys
provide Individual / Family Legal Plan members with 7 Free
Services, charge a one-time fee for 8 Commonly Used Legal
Services, give members a 10% discount on all contingency
based cases and contract to charge no more than $75.00 per
hour for any and all extended legal care.
Legal Club of America is not
an insurance company and we have no financial relationship
with our attorneys. This means
that all of our legal plans have no exclusions, limitations,
claims, or red tape. We provide the only legal plans in the
country offered in all 50 states, Puerto Rico the U.S. Virgin
Islands and China with the exact same benefits in all. Our
members are entitled to use as many of our planmember attorneys,
practicing any area of law available, anywhere in the country,
as often as they need. Legal Club of America is dedicated
to bridging the financial and emotional gap between Americans
in need of legal care and the attorneys that provide it.
Upon enrollment, our members
are immediately assigned an attorney and given a welcome
package. Attorney assignments
are based on language spoken, area of law needed, and geographical
location. Any additional attorney assignments or reassignments
are given via an 800 number over the phone. |
