LEGAL SHIELD LAS VEGAS SCAMMERS

LEGAL SHIELD LAS VEGAS ARE LIARS AND SCAMMERS!! BOGUS MLM FORMERLY CALLED PRE-PAID LEGAL

LAS VEGAS, Nevada, 89030

This MLM organization is a long time notorious scam. It was formerly Pre-Paid Legal Service but changed their name because of all the lawsuits and complaints by people and companies that sign up for this fraudulent service.

They have been here in Las Vegas and have major idiots who are ignorant and brainwashed trying to sell their service. They are a MLM organization that recruits people who are desperate and have no experience in marketing, business or ethics and will harass you endlessly with their bogus hype and canned rebuttals.

Google the name "Legal Shield Complaints or Scams" and you see all the complaints and lawsuits registered against this organization. DO NOT SIGN UP FOR THIS SERVICE OR OPPORTUNITY. UNCOVER THE FACTS, DON'T LISTEN TO THE EXAGGERATED HYPE SPOUTED BY THEIR REPS AND AT THEIR MEETINGS.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED - LEGAL SHIELD WILL COST YOU MONEY TO SIGN UP
AND YOU WILL BE BURNED FOR MORE!!!! READ THE COMPLAINT FILED/POSTED BY AN ACTUAL ATTORNEY...

Before I even graduated law school, a neighbor of my boss offered me some kind of weird job "selling Pre-Paid Legal." It sounded fishy, and I wasn't even a lawyer yet so I avoided it (and him) like the plague. However, after starting my own firm over 10 years later, I briefly registered as a PPL attorney.

After 15 years practicing law I can tell you a few things. Very busy and very successful lawyers will not sign on as a PPL lawyer. They can pay you (the attorney) as little as 1/5 of your usual rate. All PPL attorneys aren't scum. Some are very good but just starting their own practice. Law firms are paying worse and worse so there are always attorneys, even great ones, who leave and start their own practice and will sign on as a PPL attorney to get some cases to keep them busy.

The PPL administrative system is a mess. I tried to get myself removed from their list of available attorneys multiple times. 3 years later, I still get calls from PPL clients needing a lawyer! They either do not keep current lists, or they don't remove attorneys so their list looks longer. Result: This is why many of your calls go unanswered - the PPL attorneys are not PPL attorneys anymore! Most people will never need the legal services. Sure, we all need wills but keeping PPL for only wills is not financially smart. This is how PPL makes such great profits.

Google PPL. You will find that it operates as a type of pyramid reward system for its brokers. People become a broker, sell some polices but also get big rewards to recruit new brokers. Those who can sell and recruit are promoted to Speaker at the PPL seminars for other brokers. Speaker is what all brokers want to be. It's a big sales game. Lawyers build business by referrals. If I do a divorce for PPL client Mary and she's happy, sure she will refer me to her friend Joe. However, she will also tell Joe how little she paid, and how he should join PPL first so as not to pay me the normal divorce fee I'm worth. This is just another reason why lawyers hate PPL.
