Pre Paid Legal Plans

pre paid legal plans
Alright, So I have a 800$ cell phone bill too pay! Can I switch my same cell phone to a pre-paid plan and pay ?

25$ a month? Or do I have to pay off my whole bill to get off the contract?
I need my cell phone back and have no idea how I am going to pay that, So if someone could help me out. Oh and I want too keep my same phone & same number as well, Just switch from my contract ( 800$ ) to a prepaid plan, And pay the 25$ a month until I pay off the whole thing. I can do that. Not sure if it is legal. Haha. Anyway I would appreciate the help, Thanks so much!!

adopting the payment p lan you suggest, would take you about three years to pay off an 800.00 bill, cell phonhe providers will not do that. Some do make payment aRRANGEMENTS FOR 2 – 4 WEEKS BUT NO MORE. eVEN SO, YOU WOULD NEeD TO BE CURRENT ON YOUR BILL TO MOVE YOUR NUMBER TO A PRE-PAID- AND OUT OF CONTRACT OR YOU WILL BE CHARGED AN EARLY TERMINATION FEE. sOME CARRIERS WILL ANALYZE YOUR BILL, DETERMINE WHY IT WAS SO HIGH AND OFFER TO PLACE YOU RETROACTIVELY ON A higher rate plan to reduce your charges. There are some things carriers are reluctant to credit for, but most will work with you to find a plan that works for you. but it is not too realistic too expect a rate plan in the range of 25.00 Even paying off the bill will not get you out of the contract- the contract is for a set term and with few exceptions cancelling before the expiration of that term, or going to a pre=paid service will be a vilolation of that contract. Call your provider and see what they can do for you

Pre-Paid Legal: Are You Really Going To Use It?

Are you enrolled in a pre-paid legal plan and worried your provider is simply tallying up your tab for a service you’ll never get to use? Read on as we explain the chances of using pre-paid legal services in legal challenges you may be faced with.

In their lifetime, people are most likely to use legal services that fall into four categories: civil defence, civil plaintiffs, criminal defence and legal help that involve a variety of transactional or business law.

Your liability insurances already cover you for the legal pertaining to civil defence. Your insurer hires the lawyer who will defend you and have every incentive to defend your well since they are the ones who bear your legal costs irrespective of the final outcome. In that respect, you already have ‘pre-paid legal coverage’ in place and a legal plan wouldn’t add much to the coverage.

Civil plaintiff attorneys in the Unites States work on a ‘no win no fee’ basis. This means that they will not charge you unless they win you damages in an insurance claim or lawsuit against someone who caused you physical injury. Their contingency fees are calculated as a ‘commission’ on any money won, so there is every incentive for your plaintiff lawyer to defend you and defend you well: the more you win, the more he wins. There is no need to pre-pay for a service where you stand to lose nothing, and where advice is readily available to you from plaintiff lawyers eager to work on your case.

On the rare occasion you need to bring criminal charges if you’re involved in a serious accident or defend yourself against criminal charges brought against you, lining up a lawyer to represent you in advance is not the best of decisions. In these situations, client-lawyer rapport is crucial: you need someone whom you trust, build a rapport with and competent enough to defend you in a court of law. You rarely get the chance to talk to your attorney face-to-face in a pre-paid legal plan, and most of the attorneys in the network do not do criminal defence work.

Transactional and business law is the area where you will most probably find pre-paid legal services most effective. If you frequently need to someone to draft your wills, review simple contracts and set up advance health-directives or simply want competent legal advice at your disposal, then going pre-paid will save you the trouble of searching for an attorney and paying ‘a la carte’.
