LegalShield offers affordable legal support and identity theft protection for employees

Businessolver®, the leader in anticipatory SaaS employee benefits technology, expands the Pinnacle Partners program with LegalShield®. This partnership expands Businessolver’s existing suite of voluntary and point solution wellbeing options and offers affordable access to legal and identity theft services. 

“It’s important for employees to have accessible and affordable resources to protect their identities and assets to build robust safety nets for their finances, family, and digital livelihoods,” said Jen Greean, Director of Partner Relations at Businessolver.  

LegalShield provides affordable access to legal and identity theft protection services (through IDShield®) designed to help employees navigate everyday legal needs and identity theft risks with confidence. Through a simple subscription model, LegalShield and IDShield removes cost barriers and provides access to experienced professionals—without unpredictable hourly fees.  

“What we offer is becoming rare in American life: a real relationship with a professional who’s on your side, who’s accountable to you, who actually picks up the phone when something goes wrong. That’s what LegalShield has been about for more than fifty years,” said Warren Schlichting, CEO of LegalShield. “Most of our members aren’t dealing with courtroom drama. They’re dealing with a lease question, a will they finally want to put in writing, a fraud alert at midnight. That’s real life. Partnering with Businessolver gives more employees access to that kind of help on day one of their benefits. That’s what real peace of mind looks like.”

About LegalShield 

LegalShield was founded more than 50 years ago on a simple idea: everyone deserves access to legal protection at a reasonable cost. That concept still holds true today.
