A client of mine is a resident at an apartment complex in Chandler, Arizona. For the purposes of this article, we will call her Megan.
Now Megan is a sweet woman in her 50s who is as kind as the days are long. So when she signed up for PrePaid Legal Services, I knew that her kindness would never be mistaken for weakness by others again.
Just one week into her membership, Megan called me, excited to explain how she had already gotten ten times her money's worth from the services: Megan received a letter from the management mobsters at her apartment home stating that bedbugs had found their way to Arizona, and that if any residents' homes were spotted having bedbugs, then the resident was fully responsible (financially and all!) for getting rid of the bugs within 48 hours, or they would face eviction. These management mobsters, not knowing that one of their residents not only knew her rights, but had 24/7 access to her attorney, stated that each resident had to sign and return the notice within 5 business days in order to avoid action.
Megan took one look at the letter and called her attorney. Not only did management apologize profusely and tell her to forget about the letter completely, they offered her $50 off of her monthly rent for her upcoming lease renewal.
...Did I mention that this is an entirely true story?
Whoever said "Life isn't fair," must not have had 24/7 access to their legal rights! So what are you waiting for?

'Tis the Season to be Careful
So you're Mr. or Mrs. On-top-of-Things. You're ready for the holidays. You've spent the past seven hours in line outside of your favorite retail store to ensure that your nephew gets that absolutely vital gaming system that he's had his little eye on for months now. You patiently wait for the doors to open, stampeding through the threshold at the sound of the retreating lock. You rush pass the masses, find your item, and make it to the checkout lane without a single scratch... from the neck up. You reach into your wallet, pull out your credit card, give it a swipe, and look down at the keypad.... DECLINED. But how?? Did you really spend five thousand dollars between yesterday when you checked your balance, and the time of your failed purchase? Of course not. ...So who did??
Horror stories like these can be seen all over the country these days.
Identity theft is the fastest growing, white collar crime in America. But you don't have to become the next victim. Protect yourself and your family with the Identity Theft Shield, boasting the iron-clad protection of Kroll, the world's leading identity restoration corporation.
Why should you be responsible for taking weeks, months or years to restore your credit when you were the victim? Our laws and systems have yet to catch up with the times. If your home were burglarized, would you go to an officer or set out on foot to find the assailant yourself? When we want results, we go to the professionals. Why should the security of your identity be treated any differently?
Get the knowledge. Get the power.

Opening the Safe
Imagine for a moment that I give you a safe containing $50 million dollars. I say to you that it's yours -- and rest assured, it is. However, you quickly realize that there is absolutely no way to get into the safe without the combination. But I haven't given you the combination-- that isn't my problem. You see, I said that the money was yours; I never promised to help you access it.
Consider your rights as the riches inside of that safe. As an American, you are entitled to a certain set of rights. But having rights is not the same as having access to rights. I assure you, you don't want to wait until you need them to realize that you don't have access.
Less than 10% of the American population can afford a $400/hr attorney to grant them full access to their rights when they need them. Approximately 10% of Americans fall so far below the poverty line that in grave situations, the courts will appoint to them an attorney, gratis.
But what about the 80% of Americans who do not fit into either of the aforementioned categories? What about the average American who needs help preparing his or her will, or fighting a traffic ticket? What about the American who needs assistance reading over a contract, or who is being taken advantage of by an individual or a corporation but cannot afford to make a $400 phone call?
America is a country that promises justice for all. Not justice for all of the richest and the poorest. Justice for All.
It is my job, my duty and my pleasure to help others do what I was able to do for myself: Open the safe.
Innately Yours,
Lady Justice
