The Right Legal Help Is Important

Family is everything to employees and children are a primary concern. No one wants a son or daughter to be in any kind of danger but there are some legal situations which, left untended, can have a bad result for the child or young adult. The services of a good group legal plan can be critical in any of these situations.

  1. Lack of Needed Services. Government agencies are expected to provide for the welfare of citizens. Educational needs such at tutors or coverage through the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) are important public benefits affecting children. Foster care and special needs adoptions also qualify for some form of public assistance. It is not always easy to navigate the hallways of the bureaucracy. Many times parents are frustrated by lack of certain information or the wrong form being filed out. Needed public support is either delayed or denied as a consequence. Group legal services can help out in such a mess
  2. Legal Guardianship. This often is an issue in divorce cases but just as serious are situations where the parent(s) die without a will. The child is left to the mercy of the court and the bench decides who will be the guardian. This person may be somebody who has very little interest in the young person but since the parents died intestate, there may be no other alternative. An attorney associated with a group legal plan could easily draft a solid will.
  3. Consumer Protection. Toys and products appealing to teenagers may have warranties to protect against defects. It doesn’t necessarily mean the warranty is honored. Help with consumer protection issues, including filing a complaint, is a group legal services benefit that is sincerely appreciated by those faced with faulty merchandise.

In all of these circumstances, Countrywide Pre-Paid Legal Services can offer the right aid at the proper time.
