The legal assistance offices previously located at Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort and Marine Corps Logistics Base Albany are now part of the legal assistance section of LSST Parris Island.

The legal assistance section of LSST Parris Island, which provides legal services to MCRD Parris Island, the Eastern Recruiting Region, MCAS Beaufort, MCLB Albany, and MCSF Blount Island is available to provide legal advice on all matters related to the Service Members’ Civil Relief Act, landlord/tenant issues, rental leases, family law, powers of attorney, estate planning and wills, adoptions, immigration and a full range of other legal issues faced by individual service members, retirees and their dependents.

Legal Assistance attorneys are also available to provide information for victims and witnesses of crimes involving service members.
