Serving ARAG Members

Ron Anderson discusses how serving ARAG clients has helped his practice.

"My name is Ron Anderson. I've practiced law in Central Iowa for the past 32 years and I've had the privilege of being in the ARAG Attorney Network since 1995.

Our firm specializes in estate planning, wills, trusts, powers of attorney and general civil practice. The ability to participate in the ARAG Attorney Network has been a great a deal for our practice. It's allowed us to develop new clients that we would ordinarily not have had contact with. It's allowed us to provide services to people that would not have been able to obtain legal services had they not had the ARAG plan. In addition to those ARAG members, they've also referred to me family members, friends and other folks who are not ARAG members which has also brought in additional legal work. So it's as we feel a win/win situation both for the ARAG member and us as attorneys.

In the past I've done legal work for other legal service providers. Presently I've cut back on those with the exception of ARAG who I've given my primary representation to the ARAG members. The reason being is I feel quite frankly the ARAG legal services plan is just better than the others, not only for the members but for me as a participating attorney."
