Travel with a direct connection to participating Mexican attorneys. Activate short-term legal access for the days you will be in Baja California, so if something happens, you already know who to call.
legalshield.mx is being developed for U.S. and other visitors traveling in Baja California. Before a short trip, a traveler will be able to purchase access for the number of days they expect to be in Mexico — for example two, three or seven days — and receive an active folio. If a covered legal situation occurs, the traveler will have a designated way to reach participating Mexican counsel by phone or video instead of trying to find trustworthy legal help in the middle of the situation.
Choose access for the length of your trip and receive a folio tied to your active travel period.
If you are stopped, questioned by an authority or face another covered legal issue, connect with participating counsel.
Get help understanding the procedure, your rights and obligations, and the appropriate next steps.
A traffic stop, accident or interaction with an authority can become stressful when you do not know the local law, procedure or language. The purpose of legalshield.mx is to provide professional legal presence: someone who can help explain the situation, reduce misunderstandings, document important information and communicate with authorities when appropriate.
legalshield.mx is building a coordinated network of licensed Mexican attorneys to support foreign visitors throughout Baja California. Participating attorneys will be able to indicate the time blocks when they are available to receive remote legal-assistance requests. This creates an opportunity to earn additional income during hours that may otherwise be unbilled, while providing travelers with timely access to qualified Mexican counsel.
Indicate the approved hours or time blocks when you can be on call, without replacing your existing clients, court schedule or practice.
Participate in compensated on-call coverage and receive legal-assistance requests during the periods you make yourself available, subject to final network terms.
When a matter goes beyond the included remote assistance, appropriate follow-on legal work may create an opportunity for a separate attorney-client engagement.
The first phase is designed around short tourist trips, with the potential to expand into additional areas and longer-term or monthly access in the future.
