Reduce your out-of-pocket costs for legal services

The MetLife Legal Plans Plus Parents covers you, your spouse, your dependents, your parents, and grandparents for many common legal issues. You simply pay a premium each month through payroll deduction to be part of the plan, and you always have the ability to choose your own attorney.

Network attorneys are available in person, by phone or by email. If you use a network attorney, the plan will cover the attorney’s fees for many legal matters with no deductibles, co-pays, claims forms, or usage limits. If you choose an attorney outside the network, you will be reimbursed some of the cost.

Convenient online resources allow a do-it-yourself approach for some matters such as wills, living wills and powers of attorney. Answer a few questions about yourself, your family and your assets to create these documents instantly. These tools are not available to your parents. In states where available, you also have access to sign and notarize your documents online through MetLife’s video notary feature.
