Union Member Turns to Union Plus for Legal Advice and Gets the Help He Needs

It's a fact of life for most people-sooner or later you're probably going to need a lawyer. But where do you turn to get qualified, expert, affordable legal advice?

Dave Felice of Denver, Colo., and Communications Workers of America (CWA) Local 7777 has found the answer from personal experience. "There's just no substitute for the Union Plus Legal Service."

Qualified Lawyers

Felice has used Union Plus as his go-to legal resource for a range of personal legal issues. "I've called about a traffic violation, about some financial matters, and even about a conflict with a car rental company," he says. "With Union Plus you always get to the right person, and you know your lawyer is qualified."

The fact is, most companies have lawyers on retainer, and most working families don't. That's what makes the Union Plus Legal Service such an invaluable resource. Union families can get a free 30-minute consultation with a lawyer, .

If additional legal services are required, Union Plus has negotiated an exclusive 30% discount off hourly rates and flat fees from over 2,000 law offices nationwide. Best of all, the program provides you with instant access whenever you need it, with no sign-up and no enrollment fees: if you're in a union, you have a lawyer.

"The best thing was that immediate connection we made," Felice says. "It was like talking to a coworker who understood my situation and was on my side. They listened, and got me the answers I needed fast."

Saving Money and Increasing Security

Felice has been a communications worker for 35 years. For the first 25 he was non-union, and now for the last decade he's been grateful to be a CWA member and experience the union difference. "My financial advisor would say joining the union is the best thing that's ever happened to me," he says. "It's provided more financial security and job security."

Speaking of security, another benefit of being in a union is being able to use all the programs and services offered by Union Plus. "That legal program gives me a greater sense of security from knowing I can make a phone call when I need a lawyer and get to the right person quickly and easily," Felice says. "I'm grateful that Union Plus offers such a valuable service."

As Felice has discovered, the Union Plus Legal Service is available for all types of legal issues, including family law, traffic matters, wills and estate planning, real estate, criminal and immigration law. The lawyers you speak to are carefully screened, specially selected and highly experienced, with an average of 14 years in legal practice. Union Plus lawyers are also labor-friendly-and all services are provided confidentially.
