JOINT BASE CHARLESTON –
You can now get legal assistance from the comfort of your own home. In order to decrease wait times, increase efficiency, and track client satisfaction, the Air Force has developed a public website for active duty and reserve members, retirees, and dependents.
Here's how it works. Visit https://aflegalassistance.law.af.mil. You will have access to legal worksheets guiding you through the process of completing wills, and powers of attorney. Once you've entered all of your information, you will be provided a ticket number. Bring your ticket number to your local legal office and the office will assist you in completing your documents.
The website also allows you to complete an online survey to provide feedback about your visit to the legal office and to access resources on many common legal assistance topics, like divorce or landlord and tenant law. Please be aware the website cannot replace in-person legal advice from an attorney, and you may need to visit the legal office.
