Availability

• UFCW legal fund benefits are negotiated with local unions and employers. This means that some UFCW members will have access to legal funds while others will not. The UFCW legal fund benefits may vary.
  
  

Benefits

• Benefits usually include coverage of legal fees associated with the use of an attorney to handle personal matters for you and your dependents. You must use attorneys who are included in the legal plan guidance from your local UFCW.
  
  

Costs

• If you use the UFCW legal fund for services, you will be responsible for any non-attorney fees that arise, such as filing fees with your local or state government. You might also have to pay into a group legal fund.
  
  

Limitations

• Like your health insurance plan, there are limits to the legal services that you are entitled to receive under the UFCW legal fund. Each contract will be different, but expect a limit in the number of cases or hours of attorney billing that you or your dependents are allowed to receive at no cost.
