“I hate to even post this because I love my Tesla, and I don’t want to give any ammo to the Tesla haters out there.

But I bought my 3rd Tesla 3 months ago and only had the temporary paper tags in the window. Those were good for only 1 month. I waited 3 months now and still no license plates. 😔

Every time I called Tesla, they said they couldn’t find the $4500.50 deposit I paid them online, and couldn’t send the plates until I paid the money.

I sent them screenshots of my bank account along with 2 certified and notarized letters from the bank verifying that I did send the money. But still no plates.

Last week Tesla emailed me letting me know they were going to repossess my car.

🛡 I called my Law Firm who sent them this email this morning.

It was "amazing" how in under an hour, they found my money and responded to my Law Firm that they were overnighting my license plates to me.”

“I faced the challenge of a tenant not paying rent for 4 months in my commercial property.

My law firm in Texas advised me to put a lock on the property with a document specifying the overdue payment plus fees to remove the lock.

Despite police intervention and her lawyer's involvement, the tenant conceded the next day, depositing the money into my bank account.

My lawyer noted that the lease was canceled, and I now plan to draft a new contract with the support of their lawyers to enforce stricter and more detailed rules.

“I had an issue with my landlord, so I called My Provider Law Firm. My Provider Attorney wrote a letter to try to mediate the issue, and the landlord refused to respond.🏡 My Provider Attorney advised me to refuse to pay the rent and put the rent into an escrow account.

After 2 months of not paying them, the landlord filed to evict me from the property. Because of the Trial Defense provided by my membership, my Provider Law Firm hired a local attorney to represent me in my town. We went to court together, the attorney explained my rights as a tenant, and what the landlord’s legal responsibilities are to the tenant and everything turned out in my favor.

The judge ordered that I didn’t have to pay 3 months’ rent for the neglect of the landlord and to fix the issues immediately!💪🏾

I never paid ANYTHING over my simple monthly membership and kept 3 months of rent in my pocket, totaling $3600!🏆💼

THANK YOU!!!”

Did you know that having a lawyer review your contracts could save you thousands? Have you ever had a contract you wished you understood better?

"I had my roof repaired by one of those neighborhood guys who can do a little of everything. He gave me a 10-year labor warranty on the roof and said if any damages occurred after his fix, I could get the parts, and he'd repair it at no cost. Great!

Well, one fall season, we had a terrible rainstorm ⛈️. I heard water pouring INTO my kitchen from the ceiling - it was bad! I called and told him about the issue, and he came by to check it out. Turned out I needed shingles, so I went out and bought what he said I needed and let him know the shingles were in the garage. His reply was that if I wanted he and his son to go back up on the roof, it would be another $300!

Of course, I was confused since that's not what we discussed. I even reminded him of what his contract said. He said he knew, but he wanted $300 to make it worth his time. ⏰️

I had a leaking roof I needed fixed, and under any other circumstance, I'd have just paid him the $300 (easier and likely cheaper than hiring someone else cold). BUT, I called my Provider Firm, sent in the contract for them to review, and a lawyer got back the same day and said he'd mail the guy and his son a letter. 📜💡

I received a copy of that letter by mail the following Thursday, I'm guessing the same day the handyman got it. On Sunday morning, I was getting ready for church and heard banging on my roof. It was him! Lol!😆 He didn't say hi or bye. He just repaired the roof ... without $300!

My big brother (my provider law firm) to the rescue!"

“I’d applied for a part-time job, and the manager asked me to come in for an interview the next day. When I arrived, I was greeted by three police officers👮🏾‍♀️asking about my ID, which was responsible for vehicle theft and check fraud. I was handcuffed and taken to the police station.😳

When the detective came in to question me, I asked for my attorney.💼

An officer brought in a phone, and I called the Provider Emergency Line ☎️ and explained the situation to an attorney who then got an investigator on the line from the Identity Theft Division, too.

Over the course of the next hour or so, I learned my identity was stolen - they could even pinpoint the last place it was used, which cleared me, and yes, my ID was doing bad things.

Finally, the detective came in and expressed the department’s apologies, and I was let go.

Looking back, I remained quite calm during that really emotional ordeal that day because I knew I had professionals on my side. The lawyers and investigators worked with me the next few weeks to remove everything from my ID and record that wasn’t me, which was comforting, too.

When I think 💭 about that day, I shudder to think what would have happened if I didn’t have my Legal and ID Theft membership.

I’ll never be without them.”

“We bought our house a year ago and found that there was a latent defect, meaning the company fraudulently hid damages.

On our residential contract, it asked the seller if there were any wood destroying insects or had the property been treated for any wood destroying insects. That line said n/a. Clearly, they had covered up the situation with new drywall and tried to jerry-rigg the stairs with new wood against the termite damaged wood.

We had a contractor who specializes in termite restoration and gives us an estimate of $68,000.00 (including the damages, materials, and labor). We turned this over to our Provider Law Firm. The law firm wrote a strong letter (and several emails) and made several phone calls on our behalf to this company.

Long story short, the company has agreed to pay for and fix all the damages in our home as well as pay for housing for the time we will be out of our home. This $25 Legal Protection membership saved my family over $68,000.00.”
