Legal Assistance
A legal assistance appointment is a dedicated, personal consultation with an attorney. This service is available to active duty service members and their dependents, DoD civilian employees stationed overseas, retirees, and activated reservists.
Generally, legal assistance appointments are appropriate for the following issues: family law (divorce, paternity, child support, child custody); estate law and planning (wills, healthcare directive, power of attorney); consumer law, creditor/debtor issues; tort law; immigration law; military benefits; deployment readiness. Additionally, for legal assistance matters that fall under Italian jurisdiction (such as a lawsuit due to an off-base traffic accident), please call to make an appointment with a local national attorney. This consultation is at the RLSO Office, but is by appointment only and depends on the availability of the Italian attorney.
Child care services are not provided, so please make alternative arrangements prior to the date of your appointment (if alternative arrangements cannot be made, please advise the front desk and your appointment may be rescheduled). To schedule a legal assistance appointment, please call Region Legal Service Office at DSN: 314-624-2953. Priority for services is provided to deploying service members.
It is RLSO DET Sigonella's policy that NO legal advice will be given through third parties calling on behalf of prospective/current clients.
