Legal Benefits
Quality legal assistance can be pricey, and it can be hard to know where to turn to find an attorney you trust. For a monthly fee, you can have a team of top attorneys ready to help you take care of life’s planned and unplanned legal events.
How it Works
The Legal Plan, through MetLife, gives you access to the expert guidance and tools you need to handle the broad range of personal legal needs you might face throughout your life. This could be when you’re buying or selling a home, starting a family, dealing with identity theft, or caring for aging parents.
With network attorneys available in person, by phone, or by email, and online tools to do-it-yourself, it's easy to get legal help. You will always have a choice in which attorney to use. You can choose one from our network of prequalified attorneys, or use an attorney outside of our network and be reimbursed some of the cost.
MetLaw could save you hundreds of dollars in attorney fees for common legal services like these:
- Estate planning documents, including wills and trusts
- Identity theft defense
- Traffic offenses
- Family law, including adoption and name change
- Real estate matters
- Financial matters, such as debt-collection defense document review
- Advice and consultation on personal legal matters
