New Air Force legal assistance website

By Capt. Morgan Engling 633d Air Base Wing Staff Judge Advocate

The Air Force Legal Assistance website has migrated to a new URL at https://aflegalassistance.law.af.mil.

The Air Force Judge Advocate General's Corps created the Air Force Legal Assistance website to assist Active Duty and Reserve component members, retirees, and dependents, increase efficiency, and track client satisfaction with the Air Force Legal Assistance program. After the site's inaugural six months, we sincerely hope you have found the website and its improvements to be helpful.

The website still provides the following information:

Legal Topics: Short papers on common legal assistance topics, such as wills and family law issues. It also contains links to other helpful sites.

Legal Worksheets: Access to online questionnaires for wills, living wills and powers of attorney. After completing an online worksheet, the website provides each client a unique "ticket number." Data entered by clients is secure and may be accessed only after clients provide their ticket number to local legal office personnel.

Online Survey: Following a visit to the legal office, clients are encouraged to provide feedback concerning the professionalism and helpfulness of our legal professionals.

While the website increases convenience for clients, everyone should note the following:

Information on the website is for educational and informational purposes only. The website cannot replace consultation with attorneys at your local legal office, and Airmen should never rely solely on the website when making decisions.

Clients will not have the ability to print a legal document from the website. Clients will need to visit the legal office and provide their ticket numbers to obtain their legal documents.

The website is designed for client convenience, but no one is required to use the website prior to visiting the legal office.

We look forward to continuing to serve the Joint Base Langley-Eustis community's legal needs and hope you find this website useful. Our office has walk-in legal assistance hours Mondays from 2 to 4 p.m., Wednesdays from 8:30 to 10:30 a.m., and Thursdays from noon to 2 p.m..
