KUNSAN AIR BASE, Republic of Korea --  The new Air Force Legal Assistance website makes it easier and faster for you to get the legal documents you need.

Whether you are at home or at work, you can fill out all the paperwork you need to get a power of attorney or a last will and testament.

In the past, you were required to go to the legal office to fill out a questionnaire with all the information needed to create your document. Sometimes, this could be a problem if you were missing a key piece of information to complete the document. Now, you can submit all the required information before you step foot in the legal office.

For powers of attorney, you submit all the information online and receive a ticket number. Bring that ticket number to the legal office and one of our legal experts will be able to instantly pull up your data and generate the document for your review and signature.

For wills, you can also fill out a will worksheet on the website. The worksheet will prompt you on common aspects of wills. Once the worksheet is completed, you can call the legal office to submit your ticket number. When the will is drafted, an attorney will schedule a time to meet with you to review the documents. You will then leave with a fully-executed will in only one visit to the legal office.

And that is not the only advantage to the website. Basic legal assistance information is available on a variety of topics including financial affairs, family matters, deployment readiness, immigration, voting, and much more. This information is provided for educational and general information purposes only. We still recommend speaking with a licensed attorney before relying on the information contained on the website to make a decision or take any action.

Finally, if you or your dependent needs to know where the closest legal office is in an area, you can use the legal services locator.

So how do you find this website? Go to https://aflegalassistance.law.af.mil or click on the "Legal Assistance" link on Kunsan's Sharepoint site. If you have any questions, contact the legal experts at the "Law of the Pack."
