Verizon is required by law to allow tethering without any additional service fees [1], but you'll need to get an app for your phone that does it. These are only available through Android as Apple does not allow tethering apps in their app store. There are some limitations if you have an old unlimited account, but you won't have one of those if you're a new customer switching over to them.
