Legal Office:  
Due to the ongoing government furlough, all 11 WG/JA civilian staff are currently unavailable. Our military personnel are continuing to perform essential legal functions; however, we are experiencing an exceptionally high volume of inquiries with limited capacity. 

At this time, we are unable to respond to every request. If you do not receive a reply, it is likely because your inquiry does not meet the threshold for mission-essential support. We appreciate your understanding as we focus our efforts on matters that require immediate legal attention. Thank you for your patience and cooperation. 

JBAB:  We will continue to take walk-in legal assistance for notaries and powers of attorney, on a first-come, first-served basis during our office hours of Monday - Thursday 0900 - 1500.  Additionally, we will have will and legal assistance appointments available on a limited basis and will prioritize deployers and active-duty personnel. 

Pentagon:  The Pentagon Legal Assistance Office will be closed for the duration of the shutdown.  If you are in need of legal assistance, please contact the JBAB legal office (11WG/JA) at 202-284-3237. 

Logistics Readiness Squadron:  
Personal Property and Passenger Travel customer service will be closed to walk-ins (by appointment only) until further notice. 

We thank you for your patience.
