About LegalShield by Manning Enterprises LLC

In 1969, Oklahoma insurance salesman Harland Stonecipher experienced a life-changing car accident. Although he was not at fault, the overwhelming legal fees that followed revealed a gap many hardworking people face when dealing with unexpected legal challenges. Determined to make a difference, Harland founded Pre-Paid Legal Services, Inc. just three years later, with a mission to ensure families and individuals would never have to face costly legal battles alone.

From that vision, Harland built a proprietary network of dedicated law firms, bringing affordable and accessible legal representation to people everywhere. Over four decades, he grew the company from a small one-room office to being publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange in 1999. Today, his legacy continues as LegalShield, trusted by over 1.7 million members and supported by 39 provider law firms across the nation. Though Harland passed away in 2014, LegalShield remains stronger than ever, proudly carried forward by partners like Manning Enterprises LLC here in Kansas, delivering quality legal protection for everyday life.
