    Now, ANY Texan may join the Texas Legal Protection Plan. Although there is a slight difference in rates, the benefits are exactly the same in the new Individual Plan.

  • November 1, 2011

    Because of the recent economic events, 46% of employees are taking a greater interest in understanding the benefits they receive through the workplace. With employees now paying more attention to these benefits, there is an opportunity for organizations to help a more engaged workforce fully understand all of their options and the true value of their benefits package.

    Employees consistently rate benefits as one of the key factors in employee job satisfaction. It is important for an employee benefits package to be attractive to both current and prospective employees as well as cost-effective, especially in this economic downturn.

  • September 1, 2011

    As of September 1, 2011 a membership rate increase will be effective. This is only the second rate increase in 40 years. Members are still covered year round for about the same price as an attorney would charge a client for one hour of service.

    The Texas Legal Protection Plan relies on its membership premiums as its sole source of funding. With membership growing and a higher utilization of the Plan, a rate increase was necessary to keep our Plan operational, to continue attracting experienced and effective attorneys throughout the State, to continue paying members’ claims and to retain a professional and dedicated staff. To be certain, TLPP hired an Actuary to conduct an audit and market value study of our program and the benefits offered. The actuarial report reiterated the need for a rate increase to ensure the organization’s survival. Such a rate increase will bring the value of the Plan and the utilization of the Plan to balance and TLPP will be able to continue serving its membership without interruption.
