Benefit Usage
Each of the plan benefits is available one time per year, per family. At the end of a Policy Year or one year term, the benefits renew automatically. Once you become a member, there is no waiting period for most areas of coverage.
Participating Attorney Network
Members have access to Participating Attorneys across the state of Texas. Members choose an attorney using our online Attorney Finder or by contacting a Texas Legal staff member to receive assistance selecting an attorney.
Texas Legal Participating Attorneys must meet Texas Legal’s standard of qualifications including practicing law in good standing with the State Bar of Texas.
When a Member uses a Participating Attorney for a covered service, Texas Legal will pay the attorney directly up to the plan maximum. There are no co-pays or deductibles on the part of the Member when using a Participating Attorney.
If a Member chooses an attorney that is not a Participating Attorney, then Members themselves are reimbursed directly according to the plan provisions for the costs of legal services up to a dollar amount specified in the plan.
