REAL Results’ Member Story: $2100.00 recovered from forged cheque incident Our member had a contractor who forged a post-dated cheque and then cashed it at TD without the member’s knowledge or permission. After our LegalShield lawyer, Mr Joe Carangi sent a letter and then followed up with the member, TD Bank will now be fully refunding all these monies back to the
member. The amount is $2100.00 Many thanks again, to Joe Carangi!

REAL Results’ Member Story: Wrongful Termination Issue:
Our member was wrongfully terminated and offered only 8 weeks of severance pay by the opposing party, (after 8 years of employment). Thanks to Tim Perrin’s letter and Joe Carangi’s
follow up advice afterwards, the member received 19.5 weeks of severance (two and a half times as much) at no cost to her above the monthly membership fee. She was very happy with
the result.

‘REAL Results’ Member Story – I.D. Theft Issue Resolved!
We found that our chequing account overdraft was putting money into our checking account, despite us having plenty of money in it to cover our cheques. I had misplaced my debit card and thought it
was on my rather untidy desk. When I called the bank, I discovered that there were a number of charges on it, occurring long after I had last used it to purchase anything. I learned that I had bought
five tanks of gas, been to a restaurant for dinner and to a grocery store the day before. I stopped the card and marked the charges that weren’t mine for the bank. I then called LegalShield’s Identity
Theft Shield to report the crime. I filed and got a copy of the police report and forwarded it with a signed limited power of attorney form that LegalShield asked me to sign. That was really all I had to do. They ordered a tri-merge credit report for me to check for more fraud, then they went to work sending out letters and putting fraud alerts on our accounts. They did some searching in various data bases, looking for more fraud. Luckily, there was nothing else so, after 90 days, I received a thick folder with copies of the actions they had taken on my behalf. They asked if I was okay with closing the file and reassured me that, if the theft started up again, to just call and they would reopen the case again.
It was a huge relief not to have to do all that they did on my behalf. Not only did I not want to do it, I didn’t have the time. They did in 90 days what it would have taken me two or three years to accomplish, if I ever got it done. My case was limited. I can’t imagine what I would have done, if the thief had gotten more than
my debit card. If it ever happens again, both my husband and I know that Kroll is watching our backs. Since we became members, I have personally received three letters from companies apologizing for losing my information. I realize that there is no way we can prevent them from being so careless, no matter how much we shred or secure our mail. We have no control regarding how
these databases that contain our information are secured. Linda Voldengen

‘Real Results’ Member Story – Unfair Employer
“I just wanted to let you know the results of a letter sent for us on our behalf by [a lawyer].
After what we felt was a breach of contract with a company that my husband was recently working
for, [the lawyer] consulted with us, reviewed our documents and then sent a letter for us demanding
compensation. Two weeks later, we received a cheque from the company for $6,814.90 for vacation
pay not yet taken, as agreed upon in the contract. Also, as it turns out, because we know what our
rights are from the advice given by [our lawyer], we can still go after the company for another
$4,500.00 where they illegally deducted worker’s safety benefits from our cheque.
Because LegalShield informed us of our rights, we made another phone call to a certain government
department where they will investigate this company and force them to pay back our $4,500.00
That’s a total of $11,314.00 we would have walked away from, had we not had our LegalShield
membership. The only legal fee to us was our monthly LegalShield membership which has now
been paid for the next 26 years!
Thank you Mr. Stonecipher (company founder) for your courage and wisdom in making Equal
Access to the justice system a reality for all. And thank you [lawyer] for your diligent assistance in
this matter.”
