LegalShield has been responsive to any questions I have, frequently mentioning alternatives I was not legally aware of. While I sometimes have to wait for a customer service rep (they have many callers), once past that, I am quickly transferred to someone who can help. The lawyers I have spoken to are top notch.

I thought/hoped LegalShield would be the answer I had been looking for. You send in your supporting documents a firm vets them and if they feel it needs attention they refer you to an attorney(s). What could be more simple? Unless every single lawyer is not taking new clients. I have an incident that has spun off in four directions. The vetting firm I sent all my supporting docs to was very nice and even acknowledged and said "You have been through it." (understatement) but everyone referred was too full to even do an intake and some call back.
The root cause is just not a money making incident it is a career maker, and a morally in very bad faith as well. It's not complicated and I have documents with threats from government employees from his city email addresses. My witness to the issue is a Disability Coordinator & Deputy of Development for the city council (he forwarded me the internal discussions). Seems pretty easy to generate interest but if no one is taking cases you can't even get in an explanation of what was done and by whom. So it has been Legal shield is/has been very disappointing.

I started on 2/28/25 to resolve a matter concerning a credit issue regarding a credit card. I had only received the information a week or two earlier, so I wanted to be proactive in resolving the issue as quickly as possible. I sent the required documents the first time I believe the attorney was Wiley. I spoke with her she stated get more documentation from the courthouse; I did as she requested. We were dealing a statute of limitations matter. She needed that final document to determine in fact it was a matter of statute of limitations. If I got that she could potentially prove it wasn't a valid ask from the other side. We spoke yesterday and everything changed. What was discussed on the phone yesterday was never mentioned. I felt embarrassed as she stood off to the side asking what the problem was.
I'm not an attorney but I'm competent enough to understand some jargon and I know when you've flipped the script on me and was stringing me along all the time and not being transparent. I would like someone to go and review my conversations with this "attorney." I'm pretty pissed that I'm two days away from my meeting and I thought three weeks ago I'd be in a better place. I have dealt with an incompetent individual for three weeks and she downplayed it all yesterday. I believe she was mocking and laughing at me. I was on hold thinking she was getting information for when the call dropped! I had to call back and return to the cue once again, But, Legal Shield has taken money out of my account they got paid I got laughed at!! Now, I'm facing this matter alone I'm right back where I started!!!

Fortunately didn't end up needing to use any attorneys for my situation. However, their process was very slow and didn't offer much assistance if I had needed. Took over two weeks to respond at times. Additionally, when I had signed up I was told there was a ANNUAL $40 fee when you signed up to be a member. I was a bit confused and shocked when I started being charged $40 each month after the first.
I then contacted their customer service department and they told me to send a email to their supervisor including a refund request and a request for cancellation. After I had sent this email, I had heard nothing after a week. Then, I called their customer service again and they said "You can not pursue a refund because you had wanted a cancellation at the same time you asked for a refund, therefore due to our terms and policy, we can no longer refund you." This behavior is not professional and no client should be treated like this. From my experience, they have chosen to be deceptive and not professional. I would not do business with this company again.

however, he refused. He said I have to give him my PlI and membership number in order to be transferred. I said no thank you, l'd rather authenticate in the membership department. Oscar again refused to transfer and disconnected the call on me.
In addition, he interrupted me multiple times while I was speaking even when asked not to. I asked Oscar to get a supervisor and he said none were available. I was forced to call back a third time. I spoke to a female supervisor in the membership department by the name of Breanna in Oklahoma and complained about the IVR issue and Oscar disconnecting the call on me. She showed no empathy or sympathy. I then asked her to remove my existing debit card on file and she refused. She said not until l add a new card on file. I provided my new debit card and she said legalshield doesn't accept prepaid cards (yet their business is called "prepaid legal services").
This is egregious and I'm shocked at legalshield's poor customer service. This gives legalshield a bad look. Moreover, this is not a one-time isolated event, it is a pattern and practice. I have experienced poor customer service from legalshield in the past and filed a complaint with the BBB. Legalshield responded apologizing. Stay away from legalshield.

Regarding your concern, our system does not allow the removal of a card on file without replacing it with a new payment method or updating it to banking/routing information. Additionally, we are unable to accept prepaid cards as a form of payment. We apologize for any frustration this may have caused.

LegalShield Has Hit Rock Bottom – Buyer Beware. I have been a client of LegalShield, formerly known as Prepaid Legal, since 2010. I can honestly say that this company has completely deteriorated. I’m not sure who they’re hiring these days, but it seems like they’re bringing in college students fresh out of law school—if they’ve even taken the bar exam. Customer service is nearly nonexistent, and good luck ever reaching a senior attorney because they’re too busy to talk to anyone. The so-called "middle-grade" attorneys are so arrogant that they’ll straight-up tell you, "No one is going to take your case." They only write letters or make phone calls at their own discretion, and if they decide your case isn’t "big enough" or "important enough," they won’t even bother.
My breaking point came when I had two legal matters that LegalShield dragged along for three months. They assigned me a rookie attorney who, by the way he stumbled over his words, clearly had little to no experience—maybe a year at best. He had a cocky attitude and actually told me that I couldn’t experience discrimination based on race, sex, or sexual orientation. He had already profiled me just by my voice and name, assuming I was a middle-aged ** male. When he realized he was completely wrong, he proceeded to question me in a way that crossed the line. I simply told him that I have an alternative appearance and don’t fit the demographic he assumed. Instead of handling the situation professionally, he hung up the phone.
I don’t understand where LegalShield finds these people—attorneys, staff, or customer service reps. I get that it’s an MLM and their representatives are just trying to sell memberships by making it sound amazing, but they need to stop with the false advertising. If they can’t help someone, they should just say so. If an attorney doesn’t feel like taking a case, they should be upfront about it instead of wasting people’s time. And if the company offers a money-back guarantee, they should actually honor it instead of stringing clients along for 30 days and refusing refunds.
LegalShield has turned into a scam. It used to be a solid company, but now, if you need real legal assistance, they’ll assign you an attorney who tells you that suing for $600 or $700 isn’t worth the effort—even when state law is clearly on your side. I was told that my landlord should have given me a reason for keeping my security deposit, per Ohio law, but the attorney was too lazy to draft a simple letter or even ask questions.
To make matters worse, some of the attorneys LegalShield refers clients to demand $100 for a half-hour consultation. After wasting nearly $100 on membership fees alone—and getting absolutely nowhere—I finally had a conversation with an independent attorney who was actually helpful. Ironically, she wasn’t even part of LegalShield.
Bottom line: This company is a complete waste of time and money. If you’ve had a good experience, consider yourself lucky. But for most of us, LegalShield is nothing more than a glorified scam. Buyer beware. P.S. If you come across a lawyer named Alexander (Alex) ** at Maguire, Snyder & Hassy in Columbus, Ohio, avoid him—he’ll either hang up on you or be extremely rude.

I got excellent legal advice from someone who was competent and I'd use again. They jerked me around royally to stop the service, I was very sick and had to jump through stupid hoops so I ended up with 3 extra months I didn't want. If you can sign me up and take my money right away, why do I have to call and follow up by your requirements to cancel. That ain't right. SO never again. Put that in your reviews!!

This was a complete waste of money for me. The two legal issues I needed help with were not covered by the policy. I had no way to determine that prior to signing up. Cancellation process is difficult to find on the website and requires WRITTEN notification. I am attempting to use email. If you call first they will put a hold on the account so you don't get charged while processing your cancellation.

Though we are sorry to hear that a member is choosing to lose their affordable legal services, LegalShield is a monthly subscription service, and our members have the right to cancel at any time. Per our policy, as stated on our website and in our membership contracts, all cancellation requests must be provided in writing. The easiest way to do so is by emailing us at support@pplsi.com with your name, membership number, phone number, and your request to cancel the membership.

I purchased Legal Shield in hopes I could get the assistance I needed. They assigned a lawyer quickly. However they do not handle my case needs and referred me out to other attorneys. After 4 different referrals to lawyers' offices they can't seem to understand that these lawyers don't handle my case needs. I keep getting the runaround and assigned another lawyer right away, but again they don't handle my case needs. I have a time limit of when I need a motion to be filed and I've wasted so much valuable time thinking legal shield could assist me better. I tried to cancel my plan and get a refund since I technically have not been assisted in the way I need. Was told they don't do refunds, even though there site says they can. They then offered to escalate my concerns so someone can investigate what is happening, and told me to dispute the charges with my bank.

Unfortunately I've been a long-term customer since 2017. The service used to be really good but now it's marred with extremely poor customer service and also referrals to attorneys who are not even available to take on new clients! I've needed legal assistance twice within the past year and the law firms I've been referred to were either unavailable or just non-responsive. The first one, after I called about five times finally responded and said they did not have availability for new clients.
The latest law firm, I've been calling for the past few days (I'm up to 3 phone calls and an email now) and they are not responding. It's awful to pay for a service and not get what you pay for. My advice to anyone going through these reviews and considering this service is just don't do it, it's a waste of money. You're paying them monthly to not get any help when you need it. I'll be cancelling with them and sending them the written request to cancel (you have to write them to cancel... more loopholes just to aggravate you).
Also, I've spoken with two customer service reps this week regarding my latest legal matter and they had the nastiest attitudes! Lawyers having short responses/bad attitudes... Okay that's to be expected, but a customer service rep? They're supposed to deliver CUSTOMER SERVICE. It's a bit ridiculous to be talked down to by someone who I'm calling in to ask for help and for a service that I'm paying for religiously.
Since the company does not care about its customers. I'll take my money elsewhere. Over the years I've referred tons of people to Legal Shield and even thought about applying to be a sales rep for their company, that's how much I believed in them, but not anymore. My recent experiences have been awful. I do not recommend Legal Shield to anyone. Just don't do it, not worth the headache and wasted time.

I spoke to Bob from the Ohio branch of Legal Shield as he is assisting my older sister whom lives in Cali. They needed a card to use for her initial payment as hers wasn't in yet so I told him I will authorize and agree to a one-time payment from mine to help. He assured me it would only be once. Woke up today to another payment being taken, after he called me 2 weeks ago saying my card will be taken off the paperwork as my sister updated them with her new one. They would not have been able to withdraw money if they indeed took my card off their paperwork as told to me so thanks for that lie. When I contacted Bob about the money being taken all he could say was, "I'm sorry, I'm not in the office today."
My advice to everyone is find legal help elsewhere. Legal Shield are liars and thieves and if you are in Ohio and go through them anyways please at least make sure Bob isn't the one handling your case. He is a horrible person who will lie to your face, lie to you over the phone and take your money without caring or trying to make it correct. I will be hiring legal counsel of my own and going after my money and definitely will be getting a much better accredited and higher reviewed lawyer.

My attorney was very knowledgeable and professional. He submitted a letter on my behalf that proved instrumental in winning my case involving an over-zealous and quite egregious online merchant. I required your firm's assistance in showing this unscrupulous merchant the errors of his ways that paid dividends in the form of a full refund that was granted to me. I recommend Pre-Paid Legal Services to anyone who needs professional legal assistance.

I was in a car accident, and wanted to get help retaining a lawyer. I have used Legalshield to refer me to a local law firm in the past, and never had an issue. Now I tried calling their customer service to see if my account could be reinstated. They said it would take 24-48 hours to take effect. Cool, no problem until I looked at my credit card statement. They charged me 6 times in a 24 hour period! I know the charges are pending, it takes 3-5 business days to process it, but that's just onerous. It's also bad service; I'll be disputing the charges with my credit card company, and spending more money to get a referral from North Carolina Bar Association. Don't use them, they're not the same service they were 4 years ago. In total I was charged around $239.70 so far; I definitely have a case of buyer's remorse.

LegalShield is a FRAUD. They do not help you the way that you think. The lawyers lie to you and have you think they can, but THEY WON'T. ATTY ** IS A LIAR!!! First, she didn't believe that I was telling the truth because according to her "HER CLIENTS LIE TO GET MONEY". She followed up on a Landlord/ Tenant case that said "We have already taken care of this matter" which was connected to another case concerning a William Sanders Law representing me. She told me that I had a case, then a week later said "THE LAWYER DIDN'T DO ANYTHING WRONG" and backtracked everything she said to me a WEEK PRIOR. "You can't expect to get a steak on a hamburger budget" is what she said.
Four cases with admission to them being LEGITIMATE cases and NO HELP AT ALL. They don't want to help, they just want you to feel good that someone is looking into the case. So the end result was NOTHING!!! They ALL need to be fired because they are getting over on people, and the system is so set up in their favor and THEY KNOW IT!!! Don't waste your time or money!!!

Extremely apathetic; makes lazy appear as luxury.

Their offices advised me that the matter was not personal, but business and I would need a business account to resume forward.
I contacted Legal Shield, and they closed the personal account and created a business one, however since the matter involved another Legal Shield member, I was subsequently involved that it would need to be a personal account. It was a ping-pong show, with me finally having dialogue with an attorney who didn’t even understand IRAC (Issue, Rule, Analysis, and Conclusion); furthermore, I cancelled the account only to find out 90 days later that Legal Shield had opened a business account for me and never closed it.

This place is a scam.. I contacted them for advice. On what type of attorney was recommended for my specific situation. Without my consent or knowledge, they set me up for autopay, charging me 30$ a month for the simple ONE TIME answer of "you need a consumer attorney".. When I realized that I was being charged automatically each month, I called to get taken off and be reimbursed... They said that I would no longer be charged..2 months later, I'm being charged again.. When I called them, they tell me that I needed to mail in a cancelation confirmation in order to quit my membership..... They are very twisted and not trustworthy.. Stay away

I was having trouble getting a response from an insurance company related to a non-injury vehicle accident. I reached out to LegalShield. Our previous contact was no longer with the firm assigned to us. However, I got a prompt response letting me know that and then an immediate follow up from a new contact. I was very pleased with the prompt service and experience I had with the attorney who reached out.

My first experience using Legalshield was fantastic. I was unsure of the level of service that would be provided, but I was incredibly surprised. The attorney I spoke with listened to my concerns and provided all the information I needed to move forward with my issue. He was empathetic and I never felt rushed. I am so thankful I signed up for this benefit with my employer.

Received a call back today. I was disappointed. The whole time I spoke to her she was typing. I got the distinct impression that she was not listening to me. She was not concerned. And did not really want to be bothered with what I had to say.

It is very long wait to finally talk to someone. I never get helped. It is a scam. They don't even give me a refund that I asked for. I don't recommend to anyone. They don't do anything just you need to pay monthly for a membership.

The reason why I gave 5 stars it's because he went above to make sure that my letters were received and sent. We went over the action on the matter. The only problem was, we were playing phone tag for a while. And it seems as though that's what happens a lot trying to get through. It could be my work hours. Hopefully, we can resolve the matter without any further issues developing... In the landlord-tenant matter.
