LegalShield announced the launch of its new mobile app experience with the goal of making access to legal counsel on a wide range of personal and business legal issues easier to obtain. Similar to telemedicine, LegalShield’s new mobile app experience connects members to LegalShield network lawyers who can offer advice, counsel and legal services.
“Our extensively upgraded mobile app is based on feedback from thousands of our members and LegalShield partner law firms—we asked what we could do better, listened intently, and responded with enhancements designed to delight users,” said Arnold Blinn, LegalShield CTO. “This release is a big step toward realizing our company vision to build a world where access to justice and security is equal for every human—regardless of gender, race, orientation, education, social status, or personal wealth.”
The new app experience offers:
- Consultation scheduling with network lawyers
- Streamlined legal assistance that allows members to choose an area of law and follow a guided step-by-step process to simply the traditionally complex and confusing legal experience
- Follow up by a network lawyer consultation within four business hours after requests are submitted
- Discounted hourly rate on some legal services
- Image upload capability to support legal consultation requests
- An invite feature that allows members to easily add spouses and dependents to their plan
