My company provides legal outsourcing services. I think offshoring labor price arbitrage might be a good fit for pre-paid legal plans. A lot of the low level work could get done "on the cheap" freeing up American attorneys under contract to pre-paid services providers to do the higher end work, while saving small businesses even more money. Nina,
