LOS ANGELES, July 18, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LegalZoom.com, Inc., the nation's leading provider of online legal document services, today announced it will provide to every member of the Los Angeles Police Protective League a complimentary legal document to protect the officer's family and property.
As part of this unique opportunity, LegalZoom is offering all League Members, including Reserve Associate Members, a complimentary last will and testament, living will or power of attorney, or significant savings off a living trust.
"The 9,900 brave men and women of the Los Angeles Police Department put their lives on the line every day to protect us and maintain peace in our communities," said Paul M. Weber, President of the Los Angeles Police Protective League. "We are excited to offer our members this exclusive opportunity to save money on important legal documents and are thrilled to partner with LegalZoom in offering this valuable service to our members."
John Suh, CEO of LegalZoom, said, "After serving the legal needs of millions of individuals and small business owners, we recognize that most people, including LAPD officers, believe that it's costly and time-consuming to make important legal documents. This results in many people either putting off or not taking the critical legal steps necessary to ensure their families are sufficiently protected."
Suh added, "We are honored to have this opportunity to help protect our city's first responders, and we know these documents will give them and their families added peace-of-mind while protecting our community."
