There are 5 kinds of Identity Theft.

1) Driver's License Identity Theft

2) Social Security Number Identity Theft

3) Character/Criminal Identity Theft

4) Medical Identity Theft

5) Financial Identity Theft

You are vulnerable to having your identity stolen. You have a significant investment in protecting your good reputation so the last thing you want is for someone to use your driver's license to commit a crime, not show up for "your" trial which will result in a bench warrant being issued against you. That is exactly what more and more people are experiencing as victims of Driver's License Identity Theft. If that were to happen to you, you would need a lawyer, probably in the middle of the night.

Given that only one in seven hundred identity thieves are caught, there will be no slowdown in this crime wave any time soon but you can protect yourself from being the next victim. You need a monitoring system that lets you know if a thief opens a post office box, files a change of address card, tries to buy a house or opens a new bank account in your name. If you are falsely accused of a crime due to someone stealing your identity you WILL need the help of the best lawyers.

The Federal Trade Commission, which is the lead agency handling ID Theft, says that on average, it takes a person 600 hours to restore themselves after being a victim. That is FIFTEEN 40 hour work weeks. NO ONE has that kind of free time. There are lots of new companies that do credit monitoring but there is only one company that offers a Life Events Plan to assist you before, during and after being a victim of ID Theft. Pre Paid Legal Services, Inc. and Kroll Background America, Inc. are two powerhouse companies who have partnered to minimize the impact of ID Theft and assists people in the resolution of the event.

With Kroll and Pre Paid Legal watching your back you will have the peace of mind of knowing you have complete monitoring and restoration protection. It is smart to have two 30+ year old, New York Stock Exchange companies protecting you. The American Bar Association has endorsed Pre Paid Legal plans as the most efficient way for people to have access to legal help when they need it. If multiple people are using your Social Security number and not doing proper withholding, you are going to need the tax attorney time that comes with your Pre Paid Legal membership when you go to the audit.

Kroll is the only company that was allowed to go below ground zero to remove the gold from the vaults after 9/11. When the FBI, CIA and Saudi government could not find where Sadam hid the Saudi money that he stole, the Saudis hired Kroll. Kroll found it, recovered it and returned the money to the Saudis. The Security and Exchange Commission hired Kroll to discover where all the Enron money went and the City of San Diego hired Kroll to investigate and do the forensic accounting on the recent pension scandal. If our government and big corporations hire Kroll to protect them, why wouldn't you?
