Complete Question Explanation
(See the complete passage discussion here: lsat/viewtopic.php?t=14496)
Must Be True. The correct answer choice is (E)
The author’s predictions are found toward the end of the passage; we should note then that this question
refers to the final paragraph. The correct response should reflect one of the reasons the author listed as a
potential consequence of increased use of these legal plans.
Answer choice (A): Actually, the author believes that the pre-paid plans may have negative effects, and
so do the lawyers who are critical of the plan, as discussed in the second paragraph.
Answer choice (B): The passage says that plan members would have access to reduced-cost legal
services, not that the plans would then reduce the fees they charge.
Answer choice (C): The author states that lawyers who cannot benefit from the plan will refuse to
become involved. This answer choice contradicts the author, so it is incorrect.
Answer choice (D): The author believes that the outcome will probably be negative for both lawyers and
clients.
Answer choice (E): This is the correct answer choice. In lines 52-57, the author specifically states that
lawyers will spend less time on complex cases.
