Affordable Legal Insurance Now Available in the Personal Lines Marketplace through LawGuard® 2025

WEST DES MOINES, Iowa, February 18, 2025 — LawGuard has introduced a new and innovative individual legal expense insurance product to the personal lines marketplace, creating opportunities for agencies and carriers to offer LawGuard Legal Expense Insurance to their clients.

You may have already heard of legal expense insurance, as it has existed in the United States for years. However, it has primarily been offered only to employees of large Fortune 500 companies through group policies. Legal expense insurance is becoming more of a need than a want for every American these days. Attorneys charge an average of $340 per hour, and legal issues can quickly lead to unexpectedly high costs. As a result, more people are seeking legal expense insurance to safeguard themselves against this risk.

LawGuard is a low-cost, guaranteed issue personal lines product that covers attorney fees for over 70 of the most common legal risks. It empowers policyholders to choose any attorney they wish, without being limited to a network of attorneys. And it rewards policyholders with a disappearing deductible that decreases each year until it reaches $0 – and stays there. Policyholders are reimbursed based on the policy’s clear reimbursement amounts for the specific legal issue.

From dealing with a contractor who won’t finish a project to a dispute with a neighbor over property lines, LawGuard is there to help protect policyholders. With a comprehensive standalone product, or a policy-specific add-on to existing policies like home, auto or renters, LawGuard offers a range of product options to meet the needs of each partner. And for carriers who prefer to offer new products under their own brand while assuming none of the claim risk, LawGuard can also be white-labeled.

“The reaction from carriers and agencies has been encouraging as they see the opportunity for their company to generate new revenue while offering a valuable, needed product to their customers,” said Nick Berger, LawGuard’s Head of Affiliate Sales. “We’re faced with a unique opportunity to provide more Americans with affordable legal protection, which has predominantly been made available to employees of large corporations once a year during open enrollment.”

LawGuard is now a member of the Insurance Networks Alliance (INA) and attended the 2025 Annual Conference in Phoenix. They will be attending various conferences and trade shows in 2025 as they look to partner with agencies and carriers to make more Americans aware of the LawGuard product.
