Simple, we give you HUNDREDS of dollars of help RIGHT UP FRONT (free consultation, free letter or call on your behalf, document review at NO COST) plus you get a discount on everything else! It only makes sense to PAY LESS right? The plan would be worth the $26 a month if all we offered was the 25% discount! (Let's see... a $200 an hour attorney would save you $50 an HOUR!)

No, members are on a month to month basis though doesn't it make sense to protect you RIGHTS and your IDENTITY for $1.20 a day?

No, the ONLY way to be canceled is through nonpayment or fraud.
I haven't used an attorney in years. Do I really need this membership?
YES! The reason you haven't used an attorney is NOT because you didn't need one, but because you were faced with the financial decision. "Can I afford to hire an attorney to handle this?" The answer is usually NO. WHY? Because @ $200 an hour plus, it's hard to afford much time. The fact that most people don't have a WILL in place says a lot about how unaffordable attorneys are for the average person.
