Legal coverage enrollment and changes
You can sign up for legal coverage during Annual Enrollment or when you first become eligible for benefits. Once you enroll, your coverage stays in place for the entire plan year if you are eligible. Please note that you cannot cancel your MetLife legal plan mid-year, even if you have a qualifying life event. You can only change or drop coverage during the next Annual Enrollment period.

That's it!
This process is easy from start to finish. There are no copays, deductibles or claims forms when you use a network attorney for a covered matter.
