Pre-Paid Legal Services, is one of the first companies in the United States organized solely to design, underwrite and market legal plans. PPLS covers many personal, non-work related legal issues. The plan provides an employee, their spouse and qualified dependents assistance with personal legal issues including:

• Unlimited telephone consultations
• Free phone calls or letters from attorneys
• A free Will
• Contract and document reviews
• Motor vehicle legal representation
• Lawsuit defense
• IRS tax audits, discounts on divorce and post divorce related matters
• Real estate transactions
• Identity theft protection and restoration plans

The newest, and possibly most important to business professionals, product PPLS offers is Identity Theft Shield. At no charge to Chamber members, PPLS will send in an Identity Theft Expert to help create a plan to safeguard non-public information. PPLS provides the training and necessary written policy, forms and documents that demonstrate Good Faith measures to comply with FACTA, GLB, HIPAA and other laws. The documents provide proof that handlers of sensitive information have attended the mandatory employee training now required by the Federal Trade Commission. PPLS's program is not bulletproof insurance against lawsuits, penalties, fines or damage awards, but provides evidence that companies are doing their best to protect the sensitive employee and customer data they have.
