Legal Services Benefit
Legal Services are a critical employee benefit as three in four employees face a legal issue each year, and more than half of American adults do not have a will. With attorney hourly rates averaging between $255 and $520, many employees delay or avoid seeking legal help due to cost concerns. The stress of unresolved legal matters already impacts workplace productivity, and employees without a lawyer are three times more likely to use work time to manage their legal issues. By offering legal services as part of a benefits program, employers can give employees affordable access to experienced attorneys through discounted rates, referrals, and document creation support. This ensures employees get the help they need faster, at a lower cost, while reducing stress and helping them stay focused and productive at work.
