"I teach part-time at a community college. They offer legal as a voluntary benefit for full time employees. As a part-time employee, I can't take advantage of the benefit but if I had the chance I would probably enroll. Almost every educational institution I've worked for has offered this benefit for full time employees, but I don't commonly see it offered by other employers."
-- Gaston R., Translator, Houston
"My employer offers a Legal Services voluntary benefit. They deduct the monthly group rate from payroll and offer pretty much all legal services with no deductibles and no copayment."
-- Rajat L., Boston
"My employer doesn't offer this benefit. Maybe they did in the past, but I'm not sure."
-- Heather H., Payroll specialist
"I work for a dentist office. They don't offer legal plans of any kind in their benefits package."
-- C. Stec, Dental hygienist, Miami
"My workplace offers a legal plan that is between $10-$15 per month for different levels of coverage. Self, self plus spouse, self plus children and self plus spouse and children. The legal plan offers a phone number for consultation as well as local attorney services. If I ever left my job, the same provider offers individual policies."
