Legal Benefits

Legal benefits are somewhat of a non-standard benefit, and so the following is an overview of what a specific company offers employees. 

Company Participating: UC Davis
Cost: $12.73/ month for family coverage

 
Advantages:

1. Provides legal services for members.

2. Unlimited telephone services with a free 800 #

3. Online law guide

4. Online do-it-yourself documents

 

Disadvantages:

1. Only covers matters that are specifically included. They will give you a 25% discount to use a participating attorney for non included matters (still a big expense for lawyers who charge $200/hour).

2. Won’t cover matters that occurred before January 1st of year benefits began. For example to get a marijuana charge removed from your record for a current job.

3. Won’t cover lawyer’s fees for trial until the fourth day so you still rack up a huge bill.
